TD Ameritrade Vs E Trade

Can anyone using the above list down your experiences with them?

Which might be a smarter choice?

Been talking to E-Trade customer service. They are nice and reply emails fast too.

Yea, i agree. E-trade commision is high. 19.99.

If trade more than 30 transaction in 3 months, you'll get 9.99 and some other fees waiver.

Their office is at Singapore, it would be a good consideration if you prefer to speak to a real person. They speak mandarin too for those who prefers it that way.


Well, that's about fees and services, but not sure yet about their trading platform comparison to TD ameritrade.

Wish E Trade would reduce fee prices and offer more promo to international clients.


Btw, anyone buy healthcare stocks here?

E-Trade does offer real time streaming quote.

And the minimum initial funding is USD 1K.

Can start small to get the feel bout it. That's what attracts me. And their branch office is at Singapore. Can go knock their door when something is wrong.

Anyone who uses E-Trade, share your experience please.

Thanks
