Barrons publishes a great article on the online brokers every year.  This years was from March 6th.  That's one source.  \n\nUnfortunately, I don't recall seeing too much else other than what I've seen in the news.  \n\nHope that helps some.

Well I recently invested in the stock market with 1k. I baught LOGI at like 25.80 and its up to 27.50 or something so I'm doing rather well for myself I'd say! I use Scottrade...(if you want to sign up let me refer you so we both get 3 free trades...they dont give you anything if no one refers you) send your email to cammyton@yahoo.com if you are insterested.\n\nP.S I am planning on investing in toshiba next I think because they are rather cheap and I believe they are a part of that new BlueRay DVD thing coming out.

Check for solid fudementals, (is the company making money, does it have low debt, are sales increasing, etc.) and Technical indicators that are telling you the stock is going up, ie: price, MACD, Chaikin Money Flow, stochastics, etc.  \n\nStart with Investors.com, the site has a Stock Checkup, a great tool for checking fundamentals on any stock. \n\nFor a more detailed study of Technical Analysis go to StockCharts.com, pay particular attention to the Bollinger Bands, Moving Average, Volume, RSI, the MACD (Mac-D), The Williams %er, Stochastics, and the Chaikin Money Flow.  \n\nThen check out StockTA.com, it is also an excellent Technical Analysis site, with charted Fibonacci resistance and support lines and will tell you if the stock is bullish or bearish in the short, medium and long run.  The site also has an extensive Candle Pattern Glossary and a fantastic technical screener. \n\nThe above sites do have premium services, but all the services I mentioned are free.  I've been using Elliot Wave and Fibonacci's to help refine my in and out points.  StockCharts.com's "ZigZag" overlay helps me plot and count the waves and that helps determine where I am in the overall pattern. \n\nBasically I find interesting stocks through the screens on Investors.com or StockTA.com, run them through the Stock Checkup at Investors.com, if they measure up I'll run them through the Analyisis & Fib Analysis at StockTA.com and do an extensive chart study at StockCharts.com, examining the 2 yr, 1 yr, 6 mth, 3 mth, 1 mth & 5 day.  I'll also do my due dilligence, studying the profile, key statistics, headlines, etc. through Yahoo Finance and web searches.  If it all measures up and the stock is in a base or in a pull back and it's starting a wave 1 or wave 3, it's time to buy. \n\nSo, to sum it up; you're looking for solid fundamental indicators, and Technical indicators that tell you that the stock is bullish (going up).\n\nI heartily recomend studying the How To Invest section of Investors.com, the Chart School at StockCharts.com, and the School at StockTA.com to further your investment education.\n\nRemember, when investing always protect your downside with a stop loss or a trailing stop loss.  \n\nGood luck, hope it helps.

Honestly it is upto you.  I like E-trade the most.  They are very helpful if you have issues with you site and/or account.  I have been with E-Trade since its infancy and so far not too many issues to bicker about.  Now you cant blame E-trade if you take risks and lose money. They also have awesome resources to study and see histories.

According to a 1999 document by the SEC detailing online trade transactions, 25% of all stock trades are completed online. Simply by the knowledge that stock trading online has continued to rise, options A and D are ruled out.\n\nIn 2000, the percentage was estimated at around 33% (second source).\n\nI couldn't find an exact answer, but hopefully I at least helped to narrow your field of search down.
