    TradeZero, which I just recently opened an account and started doing some equities scalping, charges me the following:

    For 1900 shares buy and 1900 shares sell:

    Total SEC fees: 0.53 (0.000139/share or .53/3800)
    NASD TAF fees: 0.23 (6.05263E-05 or .23/3800)
    Total Commission: $0

    Pretty good...

    This slang might be useful in conversation: b/c it's faster to say "buck" vs "one hundred". But what benefit does it serve in text? You have to type 4 letters "buck" instead of 1 number "1". Plus will it be helpful to this forum if everyone starts using their local slang?

    %%
    Exactly;
    + i would like to see the bond traders/investors pay that SEC fee[rather than stocks/ETFs]-they are used to lower yield/profit anyway LOL. Some fees can be good to pay;some CA traders/ investors wish they were paying an electric bill fee.........................................................
