trouble finding broker for my low balenced account

[upandcomer]

hi, i currently have a very low balenced account. I use scottrade right now and really hate it. It has no features and is horribly expensive for me at 7 dollars a trade. All I am looking for is a reasonable brokerage that won't fuck me over with fees and high commissions but i havnt been able to find anything decent.

I seem to like IB but dont believe i can afford it. MBtrading seems like it would be ok but apparantly it has bad quotes and is unreliable?

Does anyone have any suggestions on what broker would cater me best?

BTW-i have searched the reviews on here.


thanks a lot

From your post your main concerns are high fees and low commissions. Scottrade has a better commission rate than Schwab, E-Trade, Fidelity, and TD Ameritrade. No maintenance fees, no inactivity fees, no transfer fees, basically zero additional, unnecessary fees.

As far as features:
online, same day funding for stocks >4 and mutual funds
s&p, reuters research reports
real time streaming quotes
Gainskeeper for tracking gains/losses and helpful during tax time
$25,000,000 in account coverage
enhanced mutual fund center,
ETF center
stock screener
Dow Jones Tomorrow's News Today Free

#1 advantage-largest branch office network in the country.

I'll agree w/most everyone on this forum that Scottrade may not be the best for a daytrader, but from the sounds of it I think they're your best bet...

If you have an issue, call your local branch manager or stop in the office and convey your issues w/him and see what happens.
