Ameritrade got a much better review in a Wall Street Journal summary I read a few months ago. They did a chart of all the main online and a few other ones and it ended up being their best pick over all, all things considered. I may be able to find the article and either retype some of this in here or somehow send you a PDF or scan of it. BUT I do remember it being AMERITRADE. I have yet to do any of these. Do lots of research, take time and ask tons of questions, IMHO.
