Other than interactivebrokers:

www.etrade.com.sg (i am using them, fee is high, $19.99 for 2000 shares)

www.optionsxpress.com.sg


They are both US brokerage firms with office branch in sg.

Welcome to US stock/option trading! biggrin.gif

Besides Etrade.com, which brokerage firm has bank account with brokerage account combined?

I have account with Etrade.

I am asking this becoz it would be easier to transfer money using ACH (USA interbank transfer).

It should be a good deal, like OptionExpress, but OE is too expensive.
MBtrading good or not? how much it charge?

That's y I am so angry, watching the gain that cannot be reap.
If I haven't wire the money, I will sure use mbtrading.
Now have to wait till one month before can request for check.

Well.. what I expect from them is actually I am their customer.
I give them the business and they earn my money.
so they should impose all those unnecessary rules to me as customers.
the federal rules do not say that I cannot trade without W8BEN form, it is firstrade themselves set the rules.

Perhaps they just feel that small customer like me nevermind one.

Personally i feel OptionsXpress is better than Etrade and others else. Easy account application process, clear-cut trading process and less restriction in shorting and stock margin.

Dont becoz of small commission saving, you earn a penny but lose a pound.


p/s: I am still looking for broker able to do ACH transfer like Etrade. Any advice?

Etrade or OptionsXpress never fails me. smile.gif

Both are equally good. Only drawback is commission is high. $19.99 and $14.95 respectively.

But i dont care la. i am not day trader. smile.gif
