Are the Level II quotes useful?<br/><br/>I have iZone and Scottrade. iZone used to be FreeTrade where the trades were free (up to 20 per month). I guess the idea of free trades didn't work out so AmeriTrade moved everyone to a new system called iZone. Still, trades are among the cheapest, $5/trade. If you trade often, it'll be worth it. iZone doesn't provide a streamer unless you want to pay more, so I just use the one on Scottrade. haha...<br/><br/><a HREF="http://growingmoney.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow" rel="nofollow">Growing Money</a> Do you have to pay extra for Level II quotes from Ameritrade?

When I started investing (long, long time ago), Ameritrade was the only one available.

Now I am thinking about switching… But I wonder if it is worth it.
Would they lower regular Ameritrade to, lets say $8 a trade someday?

I am not a day trader. I do use the tools provided in the regular Ameritrade.

I think I could save around $60 a year if I switch. I am still not sure about how much I would value the tools. I get level II quotes. I get research, live tools, etc.

Every investing milestone is remembered forever.

I still remember my first mutual fund, then my first stock, then my first house, my first stock options, then my first 5 digit ammounts on each, 401k and taxable stocks. Then my first margin call (ehhh, that wasn’t fun – but it is worth remembering), then my second home. My first time over the six digits in both 401k and taxable.

All important deadlines.

Keep on track towards finantial independence!

Congratulations again!
