Scottrade is a viable option, with real-time (level II) quotes, $7 commissions per trade, for a $14 buy to sell expense. My favorite online stock broker is TradeKing.com. They have $4.95 trades and cheap option contracts too. Neither TradeKing and Scottrade have minimum balance or activity requirements, but if you have enough money, you might consider Zecco.com. With an opening balance of $2,500 or more, you can get unlimited commission-free trades. Yes...I said free. Good luck with your investing!

i'll mention the thre emost mentioned.
Starting with Zecco. Zero costs BUT the ach transferr takes FOUR days and setting up the account leaves a LOT to be desired. They still haven't replied to emails I sent them and I have to seriously question how long they can keep zero costs on their investments. (others that have done it in the past folded)
sogo 1,2 or $3 transaction fees and another four day transaction to cash transferrs plus it was a real PAIN to get the money back (finally got it back after three months) not recommending them either
scottrade this was the easiest of the bunch despite $7 transaction fees. the ach while it takes three days to transferr funds the approval porcess was INSTANT! Plus teh added fact if you live near one of their offices you can stop by and actually talk to someone with questions concerns problems etc...While the fees are higher, I do recommend these guys for ease of opening accounts (especially with no hassles).
I perfer one day transactions (and used to it from sharebuilder who if they drop their sales fees to $7 I'll switch back to them) and its tough to decide but I am big on fast rsponses ot my questions and any problems I have can be quickly resolved. Sharebuilder had that So far scottrade has it.

www.zecco.com has free trade. you can also try www.interactivebrokers.com, they offer $1 per 100 share (but they charge you extra if you change or cancel orders). The other alternative is www.izone.com, $5 flat fee per transaction. Bank of america will soon offer free trading service but they require you have $25000 combined total asset with them, hope this helps!
