MW..FreeTrade great if you virtually never need
a 'real' broker..internal transfers are easy..
print out internal transfer form from their site, print, sign, fax it to them. Moved my Ameritrade Plus account over there.
They told me FreeTrade used to have to be funded with $25K to get started..they alluded the $5k thing was kind of like a trial..so I hurried up and joined. They said if account should fall below $5k that's not problem either. I talked extensively with them via e-mail before wiring the intial bucks. All in all..LUV IT.
I can make as little as a quick $50~$100 here and there and not have to give up to $40 of it to Scottrade. Pocket ALL the money. Trading much more than I used to, too. All those little 'hits' and sometimes a GREAT hit are really adding up.
