Stocks: ING or Etrade?

Question

I am looking at opening an account with either ING or Etrade. I don't have a lot of money to start, I plan on puting in 200-300 bucks for now so I can get the hang of buying and selling, etc. I do NOT want to borrow funds from anywhere and may have the stocks sit for a week or so proir to selling, depending on the market conditions. Im looking at ING, which charges 9.95$ per real-time trade, and I couldnt find much about etrade to be able to determine how much it would cost. Any advice? I plan on getting my account by sunday.

Answer 1

to begin with...any online broker is fine. I like Ameritrade though, and Interactive Broker. Etrade is good too.
