I just checked my TradeKing accounts and they didn't ding me, but I have automatic reinvestment activities, decently high balance, and these are retirement accounts. I am not sure which of these three factors helped. I also have several TD Ameritrade accounts with no trade activities, but not inactivity fee there either. Have you considered Scottrade or TD Ameritrade? They both have branches that you can walk into and discuss your situation with them more easily. @Martin – I think many of them do charge inactivity fee if you don’t trade enough or have enough money in there.

I'm with eTrade, and they are great. I've also heard TradeKing has very low rates. Might be worth a mention too. Great list! I’m with eTrade, and they are great.

I can also buy and sell on my own through their system, which I like to do as well. Overall, they have a good spectrum of options.

Each one lost me money that I should not have lost. Then Scottrade did not process one of my stop-losses I had set up days before and lost me $2600.00. My inquiry to the Scottrade Manager of the office I did business with was that the guy that handled was having trouble getting buyers at that time. The stock was Ford stock with millions in volume. What a terrible lame excuse. They refused any settlement, leaving no choice but to look for a new broker. I would never recommend Scottrade to anyone, period. They show no consideration for anyone, particularly, when its your money and their mistake.
