I'm glad that you caught it though... Yeah the $4 trades are for recurring automatic investments and no you can still pay $4 for trades and not have automatic investments, so you're right and wrong at the same time. All you have to do is turn it on and off every time, otherwise it will continue to buy more of the same stock at the set price that you setup weekly, monthly, ect. not very convenient if you forget to change it. You read #6 but forgot about #8... $16 market trades? To make a significant profit you would have to buy and prey that it continues to go up just enough so that you can break even. What is this Zecco? I'm interested... Yeah i moved one of my bigger accounts over to Scottrade and for another i have a private broker. However, I'm not to keen on keeping my private broker so I'm on the prowl to find something better. A buddy of mine just had his broker go MIA with $95k cash of his money and the firm won't even return his calls (it's been 3 weeks already). cheers.

Your point #6 above is silly- you miss that the $4 trades are for recurring automatic investments that happen every tuesday morning, no matter what day you set it up. very different from market trades done real time (those happen in under a minute in my experience). Sounds like you should go to zecco, their trades are free and they like servicing really small accounts. If you don’t like sharebuilder, why do you advertise them on your blog page?
