If you're going for short-term investments or daytrading, make sure to compare transaction fees and don't even think about opening your trading account at a "regular" bank instead of a online broker. At least around here they charge at least twice the price (per transaction, which adds up FAST!) as their most expensive online counterparts and usually suck even more. It may take hours to actually place or cancel a order instead of 1-2 seconds, no realtime data, unstable online-interfaces, ...
It pays off to take a few days to choose your broker - it may very well decide if you make or lose money, especially if you're not starting with a few hundred grand to trade with.
