Friday Linking – Stock Trading Edition

Today, instead of having a generalized personal finance linking session, I thought that i'd specialize the theme to stock trading.  I don't talk a lot about stock trading on this blog, but I think I may start writing about it a bit more.  Here are some stock trading info that I found this week.

  1. Thanks for the link up Frugal :P Have a great weekend man.

  2. Interactive Brokers may be good for the higher volume trader or more active trader, but it’s just not that well suited for the small person or the person who is trying to accumulate their fortune say $100/mo or so.

    If you can open with $2500, http://www.sogoinvest.com offers $3 trades.

    For non minimum accounts, try http://www.tradeking.com which features $4.95 traders with no minimums.

    The advantages to SoGo and TradeKing as opposed to ShareBuilder and BuyAndHold.com is that they offer real time trades and pretty much full service brokerage for about the same rates as those guys.

  3. Thanks for the mention!
