E*trade has helped me make money in the stock market during 1999 - with its ease of use and phone or internet access. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to be able to manage their own trading activity - and research their own stock information. I have had my E*trade account since October 1997.
I find it convenient to use: it can be accessed by phone (800-number) or via the internet, so where ever I am, I can check my portfolio status if I want to. The 800-number can be used from a pay phone (for free) if you need to check status while on the road or in an airport.
www.etrade.com has easy to understand pages for reviewing details about your account. Internet site pages are easy to navigate - and the site hasn't gone down in the past year like some other brokerage sites have (so far as I know). Great research and historical charts can be accessed.
I have used LIMIT and STOP orders - with no errors in transactions. The "frequent trader" discount is a nice feature. Transaction papers arrive in the mail 3 days after a trade for my records.
E*trade buy/sell commissions are not as inexpensive as Ameritrade, and I have thought about switching from E*trade, but I thought "why mess with a good thing?".
