jellystone1, Scottrade charges 1/2% of the principal value of the trade for stocks priced under $1 in addition to its $7 base commission. Scottrade does not offer any direct routing mechanisms, conditional/bracketed trade triggers, etc. If you have less than $25k in your account, then it will not even give you ScottradeElite platform.
Thanks! I have narrowed it down to IB or ToS I think looking at the reviews on this site. Appreciate the input! Any negs about either of these two beyond the usual?
