Thanks

hmm does noone do online daytrading?

www.legendarylars.com :thumbsup Seriously though. Ask Lars he knows a good bit of stuff and isn't making money of your stock picks so chat him up.

Ameritrade miight not be the lowest, but it's pretty fair. In the neighborhood of $11 a trade. Determine if you are going to require the advice of a broker often or if you are going to make your own picks. Avoid many of the older financial, cause they charge like $40 a trade, which is way too much. Check the rate they charge for transfers and account maintainence, and the interest rate they charge for margin. The margin rate will more than likely be tiered, depending on the value of the account and the amount of margin out.

Day trading can be a scary thing. even if you ko what you're doing. Good luck :)

Ameritrade or e-trade.

The brokeage I use isInteractive Brokers $1.00 per contract. I also subscribe to StockMarketCashMachine
screener service. Go to the site and check the results, the strategy works

hmm interesting, when i was dabbling in the stock market about 7 years ago i swore there were like hundreds of trading sites, has it really cut down lately?

Sharebuilder at http://www.sharebuilder.com/sharebuilder/Index.asp works great for me.

I use ameritrade, $11/trade and the site is very helpful

I use e-trade
