Interactivebroker is good and it offers low commision
 
2nd IB. Very good short inventory too. Depending on how much money you are playing with you can usually deal with your local brokers on commission fees.
 
I'll go with IB brokers I guess!

Thanks for support

If you're just starting off don't use Interactive Brokers. They're good if you're doing alot of volume or trades her day. I suspect you won't be daytrading (you need $25,000 in a brokerage account if you're an American by law),

Consider ETrade, Zecco and other reputable brokerage accounts. Being a seasoned stock investor I can tell you that stocks are very risky. The market tanked in 2008 and killed off many companies. Some haven't regained their pre-2008 prices. Mutual funds are pretty safe though.
 
or go with Oanda and trade currencies/metals/etc..

teeny spreads, no commission, deposit any amount, trade any amount
 
I like TradeKing personally.The only other platform I have used is sharebuilder but thats really only good for DRIPS
 
would definitely agree with this. There is a lot of money to be made but it can be gone just like that like in 2008 or in 2011 with the china small caps

Dude, that is when money is made, I bought banks when the banks collapsed, I bought BP when the Gulf was covered in oil, these are the opportunities.

If you can afford to play, its a fun game.:D

Yeah, you are missing the point, you have a CASH pool and buy bargains then sell when they recover for CASH to add to the pool.

Buy cheap sell high, hold stocks as little time as possible.
 
Would like to buy small % of companies but for little cash first.

Thats the point of buying stocks ;)
My hint: Palladium is cheap atm, but it will increase dramatically during the next 2 years, because it is used to build catalyzers. As long as the big european car producers like Audi, BMW, Mercedes keep on expanding in Asia palladium is a needed resource. But as investor in Palladium beware of electric cars.
 
I use TDAmeritrade and have never had any problems. Trades are like $10. I think the whole thing is convenient (integrated with my bank account, they pay interest on cash balances, easy tax docs), but I haven't used other services so I can't compare.

I lost about half my money between 2005-2009, but have made it back and then some since then. I stopped chasing long shot odds. Stick to big companies that dominate their industry like amazon, google, apple, netflix, etc, or companies with high dividends.

Metals like gold and silver are big right now too. You can invest in these easily (GLD and SLV) and get out if the market changes...but for now they should continue to be good places to invest in. They will go up as long as inflation is a hot topic, and it will be for awhile.

I use Etrade which I freakin love.
Commission is only 9.99.

The charts and all the interaction is great also.
 
The share centre is supposed to be good.
