Scottrade Cuts Limit Order Commissions, Ups Fund Fees

TedTed
in Fund Discussions
FYI: Online brokerage firm Scottrade said Wednesday starting in 2005 it will begin charging a flat $7 commission on all online market and limit orders. Scottrade customers currently pay a $12 commission for all limit orders. Conversely, Scottrade said it will institute a $17 transaction fee for trades of certain no-load mutual funds after not charging such fees on any no-load funds for the past four years.
Regards,
Ted

    Ted, this info is from 2004.

    2004 ?
    Still, it least this is not one of those pointless political threads... (said tongue-in-cheek)

    @ Mark & MFO Members: A thousand pardons, I didn't read the article date. Next time the Linkster must learn to look before he leaps !

    No worries big guy, it happens to the best of us. Maybe one day Professor Snowball or msf will screw up.

    @Ted- I'm curious as to how you even found an article that old!
  • TedTed
    @Old_Joe: Google search " Scotttrade cuts fees"

    Err...but surely you didn't go and search "Scottrade cuts fees". Just like I'm sure you didn't go and search "JP Morgan gets out of the mortgage business".

    I would think you scout for articles by date in the first place so you can then link new stuff everyday.

    @Ted- Thanks. I can see how that got by you- the "Copyright ©2017 MarketWatch, Inc." certainly didn't help.
