Best online brokers

Every trader looks for list of best online brokers. There is possible to find some information on several discussion forums and when walking through internet and Google search. That is way how I started search for my broker.

I opened my first brokerage account with stock broker several years ago. And since this time I discovered some important characteristics for good online stock trading broker.

I found that most important is:

good execution
- to have good fills for my limit and especially market orders
well accessible customer service
- to be able to contact some representative of company in any urgent case without delays

Commissions are not most important. It was surprise for me after some time. I discovered that amount of commissions does not play large role for my trading results. Good fills are more important. So if you have your list of best online brokers, check them for these points.

I tried several web based and then direct access stock trading brokers. Finally I found one, which I liked very much. I personally met with representative of this broker (later I discovered that he is one of directors of company :-) ) and he was really nice person. I like how he speaks about his business.

So I opened account with them. And I trade on this account till today.

What I like on this brokerage house?

Most important is customer support - it is great. What I need I can discuss. I can use email, or Yahoo messenger service to contact right person in a minute. I can call of course, but it was not necessary till today.
They have good commission structure
Accounts are held by Penson Financial services company for clearing, custody and protection
They have really good stock trading software
