BUYER BEWARE AS YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!!

Stay away from Sctottrade as their computer/technology can tremendously offset their cheap $7 trades(you do get what you pay for).

I made a trade end of day that Scottrade lied and told me was made after the market closed and was sold for a $1000+ loss! It is bad enough for Scottrade's latency to cost you $1000+ but to have their Comppliance Dept either outright lie and say you made the trade after hours or for them to be misled by their obvious lack of technological investment is unacceptable. When I make a $30, 000 trade...I DO BELIEVE I KNOW WHEN THE TRADE WAS ENTERED!!!

Stay away from Scottrade or you will lose ALOT more than the meager savings due to those $7 trades.

This brokerage actually took from my account twice the amount that was due after a short trade dividend repayment. Not only that I have missed so many opportunities on their live trading platform. It's quite ridiculous and it's happened right after the branch have a new manager. I estimate I could have lost up to a thousand dollar due to their crazy Java software. I even experiment trapping the stocks to four orders in a 10 cents range and it stand still in that range for hour. This is one of the top volume stock traded of the day. I think they are scandalous and I will take my business elsewhere.
