I like scottrade. When comparing brokerages, consider
research info. Scottrade offers research reports from S&P.
Price for trading Penny stocks. Some brokerages charge high trade prices for stocks under $2. Scottrade is good not great on this.
How much interest do they pay on cash balances?
How much interest do they charge on Margin balances?
Misc fees. inactive account fees, transfer fees, etc.
Price for trading options, if you're into that.

they all seem about the same in price, or at least you can find a dozen between a small range. You gotta make sure that you can buy as much as you want without paying extra though. My brother also found out that a couple are just horrible at the end of the year with income tax info, which wouldnt matter as much i guess if you keep immaculate records. I havent found much of the info they use that helpful, but then again I have been dabbling not really making a study of it, you had better check out what the sites offer; realtime quotes, execution times, search engines, etc.

I like Scotttrade. There maybe cheaper out there, but when I call Scottrade the phone is always picked up within three rings.
