We give you more bang
for your buck.

Our fee is simple: $4.95 per trade plus 65 cents per option contract. Period. It's the same amount for market and limit orders, and even for broker-assisted trades. There are no account minimums or hidden fees. But at TradeKing, it's not just about what you pay (or don't pay). It's about what you get for your hard-earned dollar, which is a whole heck of a lot.

An innovative Trader Network

Our Trader Network is the first-ever forum for traders to freely exchange ideas and maximize their investment knowledge. You can learn new trading or investment strategies.

Fast trade executions at NBBO (National Best Bid or Offer) or better, guaranteed.

When you place a trade with us, we scan the markets looking for the best available price for your order. In fact, thanks to our Smart Routing technology, we guarantee we will meet or beat the NBBO price. We stand behind this guarantee, and if your order isn't filled at the NBBO or better, we will refund your commission. Learn More.
