Best self trading site?

Hey guys, I'm getting sick of the crazy fees that I'm paying at my bank to trade some stocks.... just wondering what sites you guys use for your trading - sometimes daily trading? best fees and fastest updates are most valuable to me

thanks in advance!

They are all virtually the same, ameritrade, e-trade etc, as far as what they offer you in services

so price is the factor here, and scottrade is the cheapest per trade

they only have their customer service branches in the US but if you do on-line only, that might be ok. Call the 800 number and ask them.

NOPE UNLIMITED $7 TRADES DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU MAKE 1 TRADE OR A MILLION AND THERE ARE NO INACTIVITY FEES EITHER.

or if you are going to deposit $25k and don't really care about tools and frills use BOA because they have free trading.
