I am a newbie but I am looking for opinions of people who heavily invest in the stock markets and their opinions of certain online brokerage applications.
I know their are a few companies out there that all allow day traders to do just about anything but here are some key elements I would like to have in whatever brokerage site I sign up with.
- I currently am playing with StockTrak (www.stocktrak.com) to experiment and would like something that works similar to that interface, if possible...?
- I would really appreciate an easy to use mobile app - something that could notify me on a smartphone of certain transactions or info (Ex: Stock reached a SELL Limit and is going to transact @ specified price limit)
- Something that would be accompanied by tutorial videos and some good support (as stated above I am a newbie, and I would like to have a lot of instructional videos that can teach me how to do certain things etc...) -- at this point I would be simply looking to do simple day trading but I would like lots of features to be available to me if I get into heavy stuff in the future.
Any information those of you who are heavy day traders or anyone who uses online brokers feel free to provide your opinions of who you go with and why. I really want to make the first choice be a good one and not have to switch around to several brokers till I find one I like. Thanks!
