Looking at all the recent threads in this category, I can't but feel amused. No offence meant to anyone but should'nt we all beware of information saturation, I would say super-saturation here because we are getting a surfeit of opinions (often repetetive) on just a handful of options. It is very obvious to even the blind that everyone is holding his broker's flag aloft. And why not? Perfectly logical I would say.
My personal opinion on the subject of choice of broker to yet-to-start traders/investors is I realise one thing, no one broker has all the virtues of an efficient angel. Neither would one broker have all the vices of an inefficient devil. There is a little of both in every on-line trading broker as is very evident from the numerous posts in this category. So.... choose one based on your own judgement & take the plunge. The key is TAKE THE PLUNGE if you want to get started. Every on-line broker (not dozens of them around anyway) will give you their brokerage & other details either on their web sites or when contacted. Some can be bargained with & some may give you the "stiff upper lip once-over" when you meet them on account of their strong credentials viz. the banks. So just get started & start trading/investing (making money). As has been said "Procrastination is the thief of time".And, Time is money as we all know very well.
I'm not mentioning my on-line broker here. Those who know from my previous posts know and those who don't know don't. Let's keep it that way. Makes no difference to any of you anyway. Happy Trading to all of you.
