Comments: This firm caters to foreign and overseas investors. Margin accounts OK. Good glossary available online. "Swiftrade goes on bad. The personal broker is not reachable, and they put a stock they promote in my account without authorization. I should have taken the fact that they promote BB and pink sheets as a warning sign.(5/25/99)" "I was impressed with Swiftrade - helpful, but not pushy. Interface is very good, seems quite usable.(8/6)" "Not a broker but the order system is called Swiftrade. . .strange sales practices. . .I would suggest you skip them [or else] put a strong warning.(9/16/99)" "Swiftrade seems very complicated. They are not the broker [but a] 'portal' to Emmett Larkin [the clearing house] and yet another company, West America Securities is the 'broker'. . .I am worried with them, that I would call one number and be told 'Oh, we are not responsible for that part' and get sent around in circles.(1/22/00)"
