THIS IS ONE OF THOSE INSTANCES WHEN YOU GET MORE THAN YOU PAY FOR. WAY MORE.
Especially considering the fact that you'll save an average of 56% off equity trading costs and 52% off options trading costs vs. the competition.1
When you invest with TradeKing, you'll pay just $4.95 per trade plus 65 cents per option contract. Period. We charge the same commissions for market and limit orders, and even for broker-assisted trades.
We think you'll agree that our pricing is pretty amazing. But what's really amazing is everything you get for the price.
#1 IN CUSTOMER SERVICE
Just pick up the phone or use our live chat feature, and you'll be in touch with a helpful broker in seconds. After all, we think SmartMoney Magazine had good reason to name us #1 in Customer Service in their 2008 Broker survey.
POWERFUL YET INTUITIVE TRADING PLATFORM
Our intuitive interface makes placing trades simple, even for complex option strategies and advanced orders like one-triggers-other or trailing stops. So you can focus on the trades you'd like to make, and not worry about how to place them.
FREE SUITE OF PROFESSIONAL-CALIBER TRADING TOOLS
Every TradeKing client gets free access to our full suite of trading tools. They're a big reason why Barron's awarded us four stars (tops among web-based brokers) in their 2008 online broker survey. And we think our tools will prove invaluable every time you trade.
THRIVING ONLINE COMMUNITY
The TradeKing Community is the first-ever social media forum for traders to freely exchange ideas about real trades and maximize their trading knowledge. After all, when tens of thousands of traders join together, everyone improves much faster than someone investing alone.
