by Tradingrichmom

Question by shadowsjc: What is the best site for trading stocks and currency exchange?
I am completely new to the world of trading stocks or currency, but I want to get started. I see ads for all these different websites (ameritrade, etrade, etc.), and I was wondering, which (if any) would be the best for a beginner? I’m not looking to get rich quick, but I would like to start investing my money for the long term.

Also, which if any of these sites offers a way to trade currencies? Ideally, I would become a member of the site with the best combination of both of these (trading stocks and currency).

Thanks

There are several sites that you can log on to. Most of these sites have education tools which help you become more knowlegeable of trading. Just a word to the “wise”, you better know what you are doing because really you can lose everything you invested so fast it will make your head swim. So if you do decide to do this, become informed and start small. Most sites require minimum investments. I have seen people make money and I have seen people lose a lot of money. Anyway here are several sites you can visit, trade king, pfgbest, optionshouse, market club. Of course all of these start with www. Good luck to you but really please be careful.
