Have been using ScotTrade for 3 years now and have nothing but great things to say about using the website. Of course the $7 trades are great but also that you have thousands of Mutual Funds to invest in if you so desire. One tip I have is they are suppose to be up to the minute on trades but if you watch and compare there price quotes to the ones on CBS Marketwatch they are just a few minutes behind which is great. You can see the stock you are about to buy if it is going down so you can wait or if is going up you need to purchase right away. If you just compare how much you can save with that (easily over $7) the trades are basically free. You can do market trades or stops and also using trailing stops with points or percent.
Have had to call them twice because of splits or one of my stocks being bought out and they were able to answer my questions.
