Hi,
I am new to investing online and have been reviewing the different services available online to Irish customers. I have focused on the following 2:
1. TD Ameritrade and,
2. TD Waterhouse
TD Ameritrade appears to be by far the cheaper option e.g. the only charges I have seen are: US$9.99 per trade (approx €7.60)
whereas with TD Waterhouse, the charges are:
€20 per trade + annual account fees of €72 (unless you are a frequent trader, which I won't be)
Has anyone any experience with either TD Ameritrade or Waterhouse? Am I missing something or is it a no-brainer i.e. should I go ahead and set-up an account with TD Ameritrade?
