This is my main broker. It has great rates on margin, access to almost any imaginable market, and very rare downtime. They also have solid customer support for any problem I face. It's low cost as well, and the service is not going to be the same as a higher cost and high-commission brokerage - which is VERY important for traders ! I'd really love to give it 5 stars, but I need a better trading system. Sometimes i can't find the quotes i'm looking for, but that is easily solved after talking with someone from the company. You will have to learn your way around, but the value for the money is hard to beat for all the reasons stated above.
