What's your favorite brokerage firm?


i am a new investor and am shopping for a brokerage firm to start a ROTH IRA or other kind of investment. any suggestions? i am less concerned with minimal initial deposits and more concerned with long-term fees and maintenance costs. it would also be best if i could do much of it online. what's your personal experience or favorite firm you may suggest to me?

I too am a Fidelity customer and think they are great. I am also a customer of TD Ameritrade and like them as well but not so well as Fidelity.

We have our Roth IRA (and 401k) with Fidelity and have had no problems.

My other brokerage accounts are with E*trade and sharebuilder.com. Both of those are trouble free as well.

Can do everything online with all 3 of these.

Fidelity, hands down.

Schwab is terrible.

I like vanguard

E*trade (http://www.etrade.com) is a good brokerage firm. There are some fees, but if you have enough money, and fulfill their minimums, those fees are waived.
