I use USAA which has a few good points (don't have to wire money to fund account) but there are enough downsides to look elsewhere.

Brokerages.......

They all suck.

My current favorite was Etrade, until today. I get this nice account alert that states I qualify for Power Etrade, but not the platinum level. No more level II, or real time news. What a crock, I guess they wanted me to make 75 transactions or whatever number trades this month/quarter and lose a ton of money in a crappy market. It just really ****es me off when I did over 1000 trades this year at $19.95 (not counting the discount program), you catch my drift.
