Brokerage?

[flaminio]

I'm in the market for a new brokerage. I had been with TD Waterhouse, but they're instituting a raft of new fees on January 10, and I'm a littled pissed off about it. (Plus they've given me a number of other customer service snafus.)

Does anyone have a brokerage they're in love with?

I wouldn't say I'm in love with them but I have been very satisifed with Datek. I'm not clear from your post if you are looking for a broker you can actually speak with or if you are just looking to do your own trading.

If you are an experienced trader and want really low comissions, check out http://www.brownco.com - I have tried E*Trade, Ameritrade and Datek in the past and but Brown & Co. suits me the best.

Quick and Reilly is by far the best.

I doubt you'll find many people agreeing on what "best" means. Different people have different needs and wants.

Q&R is not "best" for me because I don't want to pay for all the extras - I just want to trade. So why pay higher comissions and fees if I don't have to?

Absolutely correct Lud. I should have put more info in my statement but I was in a hurry. I find that Quick and Reilly is the best for my needs. I am a stickler on trade execution time, and Quick and Reilly is the best at that. Any order that I put in is always completed under 10 seconds. Also if you have over (I think) 100k on deposit with them and/or Fleet bank most everything is free.
