>>> Which cyber broker is the best for Dummies - 2 ? <<< The DATEK was the winner among 5 brokers but, If you want to invest for long term and doesn't trade often, I would recommend Charles Schwab. schwab.com Good: 1. C Schwab is the only cyber broker that sent me the voting materials and company information booklets via mail. One can expect a quasi traditional broker service from Schwab. 2. It's a big company, which means reliable and provides many different services. Bad: 1. Trading fee is $30, somewhat expensive among cyber brokers. -------------- If you graduate from dummy level, I would recommend Dreyfus: edreyfus.com Good: 1. Great option site and low fee 2. Fairly good short availability Bad: 1. $15 per equity trade (not too bad) 2. Does not update your account in real time (fund availability) ------------- AVOID : AB Watley and Wit Capital Had bad experiences with these two brokers.
