Here are a few more online stock brokers that just missed the cut for our “best of” list but may have specific features that appeal to you:
- Ally Invest: Ally Invest offers both self-directed and automated investing and its options trading platform is one of the most advanced and affordable (options trade for just $0.50 per contract) on the market today.
- TradeStation: TradeStation is a top online share trading center for expert, active traders who want a professional-style investment experience.
- Webull: Like Robinhood, Webull supports crypto in addition to stocks, ETFs, and options. But Webull’s trading platform is more advanced and provides an impressive array of technical analysis tools.
- Firstrade: Firstrade offers a little something for everyone, with a wide range of supported investments and account types with very low fees.
- Public: Public.com allows users to trade fractional shares of stocks and ETFs and also supports crypto trading. The platform also has social features like the ability to make your trades “public” and learn from other traders in your feed.
- Vanguard: Vanguard has long been one of the best online stock brokers for passive investors. This is thanks to its low-cost index funds and the rock-bottom advisory fees that it charges for Vanguard Digital Advisor and Vanguard Personal Advisor services.
- Merrill Edge: Merrill Edge could be a great choice for Bank of America (BOA) customers since those with eligible BOA checking accounts can enroll in Preferred Rewards to earn up to a 0.15% discount on Merrill Edge Guided Investing as well as other perks.
- JP Morgan Wealth Management: Investors can use J. P. Morgan Self-Directed Investing for commission-free trading for mutual funds, stocks, and ETFs. The company also has a robo-advisor if you prefer.
