We thoroughly tested over 80 online brokerages, assessing everything from trading platforms and asset offerings to customer support and educational resources. After eliminating the majority of brokers, we focused on the top contenders, evaluating their security measures and online reputations. We also examined deposit and withdrawal processes, and personally interacted with account managers. Each broker featured on our site includes detailed ratings, a list of pros and cons, and a comprehensive breakdown of fees and commissions.
