    Scottrade

    how many people here use scottrade for online trading? how long did it take you to set up? i'm very interested in online trading but i don't know where to start.

    SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

          I filled out a one page contract, wrote a check and walked into their office. Before I left their office, the branch manager placed my trade for me.

            Scottrade is great. Excellent features. As far as how long it takes it depends if you are starting fresh or transfering from another brokerage house. When transfering it can take a week and your stocks must sit during that period. If you starting fresh you can trade the 1st day..

              I can almost beat that... they actually placed my trade before even depositing my check. LOL

                    Thanks for bringing this topic up bro! I was looking into Etrade and almost started with them. Never even heard of these guys but it looks pretty solid so far and low as hell for the fees.

                    Only one thing missing and I am sure Lensman has someone on it:

                    How did you hear about us?

                    Radio Barron's Magazine
                    Investment Seminar
                    I don't see GFY in that list, do you?
