On 01.22.11, In BROKERAGES, by Admin
With the rapid growth of online stock and options trading came a wave of online discount brokers. However, not all online brokers were created alike. In a race to the bottom for the cheapest online trading fees a few online brokers took it to the extreme. Tradeking was one of pioneers in the industry, introducing low stock and options trading fees of just $4.95 plus .65 per options contract. Discount brokerages have revolutionized online stock trading.
