E-Trade Review An online Trading Platform
2

• Introduction
• ETrade is the best known for its talking baby
  commercials because of its simplicity in
  operations. It is quite popular as one of the
  internet lower price broker agents. It is a
  unique way of trading primarily because of clever
  marketing department and also for well rounded
  and well executed offerings. As the eTrade
  reviews online will tell you, it is for the
  inherited qualities, more and more customers are
  becoming fans of this broker.
• Its unique features of facilitating the quality
  experience during the visit to the site with real
  time streaming quotes, in clean navigation, user
  friendly order entry screen, simple account
  management and a quick access footer bar. Its
  superior product of E-trade 360 is a fully
  customizable drag-and-drop homepage is well
  executed. E-trade also offers basic banking
  services, which includes checking accounts
  without any ATM fees and Debit cards spreading
  over 30 local branch offices.

• Undoubtedly, the E-trade is well known and the
  most popular site for online discount stock
  brokerage. It has established the business having
  a net annual income touching over 600 million
  dollars during the year 2006 with the efforts of
  over 4000 employees. Some of its achievements
  among their competition in terms of site layout,
  tools, security, customer services and commission
  fees based on E-trade reviews are as follows
• The site layout of E-trade is very easy,
  intuitive, effective, quite professional and eye
  appealing as compared to several online stock
  brokers, I have come across. Similar to finding
  trade quotes, the searching of my investment
  portfolio is quite easy. Unquestionably, E-trade
  ranks the highest in this category.

• E-Trade has easy use and powerful tools for
  anything you would need as an investor. Along
  with its fully customizable market and streaming
  quote trading platforms, there are several other
  useful tools for the income estimator, account
  performance, asset allocation, risk estimator
  etc. These tools are quite effective and desired
  tools for the online trading. However, some of
  these tools are not complementary. You will have
  to pay a nominal fee for its utilization, unless
  you are assuring minimum number of trades per
  quarter.
• The trading platform and its all transactions
  are fully secured. E-trade is basically secured
  and really sets apart from its other competitors
  by offering a free SecurID product. This ensures
  your account to stay in protected form and in
  your possession throughout. The SecurID product
  is free and extremely easy to use. This product
  provides an incredibly strong second layer of
  protection to my account. Because of the added
  protection, the investor could sleep fearlessly
  and sleep peacefully at night.

• Though the customer service department is from
  outsourced employees but similar to the added
  security ensured by E-trade, customer service is
  extremely good. Customer service employees are
  knowledgeable, friendly and extremely helpful.
  Though these employees are reading from the
  printed matter, but are well prepared to resolve
  the issues and questions instantly satisfying
  their customers.
• E-trade has a tricky commission rate slab.
  Unless you are working for a minimum number of
  trades per quarter, you are liable to be charged
  higher charges as compared to most of the online
  discount brokerages. This could be a major
  drawback with E-trade. This drawback of higher
  commission can be overlooked for the benefits in
  return.

• E-trade is one of the great discounted brokerage
  and leading in the trade industry because of
  various supporting tools, easy in operation and
  outstanding customer service to help investors.
  The higher slab of commission rates can be
  overlooked for the expected best results out of
  E-trade. As per the E-Trade review, this website
  and declarations are crystal clear in terms of
  the expected charges based on your trading
  pattern. With their E-trade Pro trading platform,
  you are not expected to have any issue. On the
  list of the top online brokerages, the E-trade is
  sitting at a pretty high level. Several of my
  friends, including self, have been using E-trade
  for all investment needs. I have no hesitation
  in recommending the platform to anyone who is
  interested in opening an online trading account.
