    what do discount brokerage firms think about Robinhood?

    I personally don't know...you can play with the app yourself....figure it out and let the board know. Not going to cost you much...open an account with a $1000 and buy a few shares and see how it fills. Report back....all I know is I place a limit order for a price I want and I get it ....I pay...

    what do discount brokerage firms think about Robinhood?

    Maybe I don't understand what you are referring to, but if XYZ is trading at 75.00 x 75.01 and I put a limit order to buy at $75.00 and it excutes at $75 how is that a bad fill? I only place limit orders. Is this XYX stock price at $74.75 on another platform??

    Great article, they mention how long can a sustained model like this last referencing that it's been tried before and has failed every time ...this time I believe it could stay due to the fact of how many people use the service and how they have a simple platform with not much overhead compared...

    what do discount brokerage firms think about Robinhood?

    Honestly since I'm trading in 10-50-100 share lots and use limit orders I'm not not bothered by the fills, if you trading thousands of shares then yes it's something to question.

    what do discount brokerage firms think about Robinhood?

    I don't know if there is ever going to be a desktop version...the reason for zero cost commission is because of the simplicity of just having it on the mobile platform....as for the size of the screen everything is reasonable to trade with, it's set up to trade on the smallest of smart phones. I...

    what do discount brokerage firms think about Robinhood?

    They all take advantage of customers funds. Why wouldn't they. As for Robinhood they clearly state how they make their money....using your money and hundreds of millions more to grab that 1-2% interest...trust me to run an app with basic coding and maybe a couple of hundred employees is costing...

    what do discount brokerage firms think about Robinhood?

    I find it amusing once again that a company started by some 20 somethings out of blue offering free stock trading only a few years ago is now becoming a house hold name with close to 5 million accounts.

    what do discount brokerage firms think about Robinhood?
