Why aren't there any brokers that will let you write checks from the same account where you trade stocks? I hate checking accounts because they earn like 15 basis points at best.
Charles Schwab, Scottrade and TD Ameritrade you can set up trading account and checking account with them and then you can move money between your accounts and you can use your debt card to withdraw money or pay your bills on line with them. Good luck
I usually hate it when people post youtube vids. But, mixing your daily cash flow needs with your trading account causes other needless complications.
IB give you one free wire out a month and you can set up a recurring transaction to fund your checking account so it is automatic.
