Would someone please post a 'standard' commission rate schedule? I realize it's all deregulated but when an ad from a discount broker says they'll save you 70% - it's 70% compared to what? Thanks.

I don't think there is such thing as standard commissions. However, when a discount broker claims to save you money they are comparing with full commission brokers. The one I use "Kennedy Cabbot & Co." here in Los Angeles Charges: (for any stock at any price:) 1 - 99 (odd lots) $20 + $3 (handling fee) 100 - 999 $30 " 1000 - 2000 $0.03/shr (minimum $30) Over 2000 $0.02/shr Hossein |
