This broker claims free trading for $50,000 margin accounts: Anyone have any info on who they are? 1.InternetTrading.Com (1-800-696-2811): Commission ($50,000+ margin accounts only): $0 for up to 5000 shares; stock only, not options. Account minimum (for commission-free): $50,000; otherwise $10,000. Margin rate: 9% to 10 3/4% (very high). Comments: This firm is listed below as #13, with $14 commissions for customers with accounts less than $50,000. If you have the appropriate deposit, InternetTrading.Com is our only commission-free broker. The major drawback here is the high margin rate.
