Scottrade is very bad, both in service, fees and accounts functions.
Strongly advise people not use Scottrade anymore, especially new account.
Scottrade is really bad, pretending to have some advantage. But if you think
and compare widely, it does not.
建议大家不要再用 Scottrade! |

发帖数: 324 | 2 Until now, my expired sold covered-call is still not executed. No
information available. Just sent an email to me saying that they have the
right to execute it, but not necessarily do it. I called them, no one takes
the phone. Just a mess.
Either they execute it or not execute it. But they just try to delay forever
to their advantage. 强烈建议大家不要再用 Scottrade! |

Many times at critical times, Scottrade is always down saying maintainance.
They just try to take advantage of its customers, like us. Very suspicious
act.

发帖数: 324 | 9 Last time, during fat-finger error panic, I bought with a market order, but
then after 52 minutes. This order is executed, at a much higher price (55
cents higher than what I saw at the time ). During those 52 minutes, no
information whatever available to that order. You cannot cancel it, you don'
t know whether it is executed or not. Scottrade just delayed it forever to
their advantage.
I called them later. They said they will investigate, because I have the
daily operation log file in my accou

发帖数: 324 | 11 Today Scottrade said they need at least 9 hours to do maintainance. And you
are welcome to send their email, but they will take more than 24 hours to
respond because it is the weekend.
9 hours to do maintainance today?!? Why not 9 days or 9 weeks or 9 months
to do maintainance? What a joke!

发帖数: 513 | 17 Scottrade 确实有很多问题。新手没经过这些问题， 老手，高手又不愿意谈这些问题。
The best thing you can do now is either close it and find a new broker, or
withdraw large portion of your money out from Scottrade. And tell Scottrade
why you do in this way. Then, maybe, just maybe, Scottrade can have some
improvement. But never hold your expection too high.
When it is bad, it is bad. You cannot do anything about it.
When it is good, it is good. You don't need to do anything about it, either.
Good luck with your account.

Fidelity: market orders are always bad
(IRA accounts)
Schwab: fills are very good, fee: a bit high, UI a bit simple
Trusted place to put a lot of money there.
(Investment accounts)
Etrade: Very good UI. sometimes they take off the balances after midnight.
Be afraid to leave a lot of money there.

I have accounts on all of these brokerages. |

发帖数: 16326 | 29 It looks like your account is a cash account, such as IRA account.
A cash account is not a margin account, every time you have sold something,
it will take a few days to settle. You are allowed to use these unsettled
fund to purchase new positions, as long as you will not sell these new
position before the settlement date.
But if you sell them before the settlement date, you have violated some
security trading rule, and the broker is obligated to take some action

发帖数: 324 | 30 My account is margin account.
The scottrade responded to my asking today confirming that all my money from
sold covered-calls would be availabe to use tomorrow (Tuesday).
But I have determined to switch to another broker, at least withdraw
majority of my money to another broker. Scottrade is really bad.
Again, 强烈建议大家不要再用 Scottrade!
