Oil Price Per BBL

[FullAuto]

I use Etrade although I believe there are probably sites that offer cheaper trades. I've just been with Etrade for so many years, I don't want to change.

Now, I know nothing about trading, but I use my Etrade account more like gambling. I don't drink or smoke. I don't gamble traditionally and I have never bought a lottery ticket. But I love to watch the stock market even if it looks like the Matrix. LOL

I'd recommend opening a brokerage account with Scottrade. Some companies I would start looking at are Kinder Morgan (KMI) and Continental Resources (CLR) might be early yet on Continental. I would not touch Sandridge personally. DVN is a good Company and perhaps Haliburton (HAL).
Like Dennis said, I too would hate losing other peoples money so be sure to do your own due diligence.

What are the trade fees?

Scottrade is 7 bucks a trade online. I've used them since '06 and been happy with them.

I used to trade with Scott trade.. day trader I was.
get in Ford on opening and back out in 10 minutes when they traded for $8 a share and make 200 bucks,, head to the fishing hole.

I have an account with Farr financial now but have not traded for years, Farr is a commodities deal not stocks.
I should get back in and start playing again.. short that dang oil

I use Etrade because that's how our stock bonuses are issued to us. So I don't see any reason to have a separate trading account with someone else.

$19.95 versus $7.00 per trade seems worthy of investigating another. You should be able to choose to have your new stock bonuses issued to your own brokerage account.

I should have shorted SD again but just didn't have the balls to short a 2 dollar stock. So I bought some praying for a pop. May still happen but I might have been better off going to Riverwind (it was the same money anyway)...

Well I guess you talked me into it. I'll get on their website and playou around some. I'll check into having the bonuses issued to another account, even though it's unlikely we will see any this year.

I have a TD Ameritrade (linked to my HSA), Scottrade, and E-Trade account. They are all pretty good but Scottrade seems the best, they have the cheapest trade fee and their site is pretty dang good.

Their mobile app is easy too.
