The cheapest is probably Sharebuilder. But that is only if you use their automatic investment plan.
Most are probably legit. You just have to be sure you know what services you are going to get when you go for a low price.
I use Scottrade. Trading costs are low. No extra fees. I'm satisfied with the platform, performance, and tools provided. You can find a broker that provides better research capability. But not for the same money.

Bank of America. If you have $25k combined on any of their accounts, they give you 30 trades per month FREE.
The problem with the cheapest brokerages is that they are often no good. I suspect BA is the same way.
For the right combination of value vs. comissions paid, go with Fidelity. That one rocks!

I would stay with Vanguard Mutual Funds. They are a no-load(no commission) company second only to Fidelity which is 1/2 and 1/2. Go to www.vanguard.com

Go to finance.yahoo.com and look at the companies that advertise there. They're all reasonably priced.
