Who has ever used E-trade or similar

Like title says?

How’s it work how do you set up? Minimum to start? How easy is it? Things to watch out for?

I like fidelity better. Their research is awesome and their trade platform is easy. I have etrade through an employer account and it's not a big deal but I wouldn't choose it as my only platform.

Didn't robinhood recently have a "glitch" that denied users access to their account?

I like fidelity also.

I use E-trade right now. Was fairly easy to set up. Started with a hundred bucks.

Yep happened because they didn’t account for the extra leap year day lol just a one day shutdown

Etrade is easy to set up. set up account- write check - take picture of check- wait for funds to clear- purchase as you please. I use it often for my (fun or Vegas) investments. I don't do my retirement through Etrade- pay folk to do that.

I use E*Trade for the market investing that I do myself. I use the app almost exclusively (not the website). Primarily just because I can place an order in literally no time and anywhere with facial recognition login and ease of use. Heck, I made a trade today while sitting at a lunch meeting. There may be an easier format but I thought E*Trade was pretty much idiot proof.

The only thing I don't like is the waiting period to have access to invest your funds until you verify your account.

I just opened account myself.

It was a multiple day shutdown. I quit using them for that reason. I’ve used them since 2017 and have had a few issues over the years and decided I didn’t want to risk it anymore. I moved all my money to a TD Ameritrade account. I think if your going to trade with more than a few thousand dollars your best bet is to use something other than Robinhood.

TD Ameritrade, easy and rock and roll with the phone app

TD Ameritrade is what I have used since 2004
