I can't say that I have any complaints about using Scottrade. The site is very user friendly and their "Streaming Quotes" tool is very useful.
There are many tools to analyze the performance and trends of a stock, and the charting tools are fairly customizable.
Best of all, online trades are $7.00. Sure you can find cheaper commission costs out there, but I'm not so sure that the cheaper brokers have as much to offer.
When setting up your account you select the home office that is closest to you. I have moved three times in the last two years around the Dallas-Ft.Worth area and have always had a local office within 10 minutes of my home or office.
The few times that I have had to call my local branch with questions they have always been very helpful. I have never been put on hold, and never had to wait for someone to call me back.
If you are new to investing and want to make your own trades online, or if you are an expert investor looking for an all-in-one site. I highly recommend Scottrade.
