Full Service Brokers
Full Service Brokers are online, but many clients of full service brokers will call them for advice, or even visit them at their office.
Such brokers provide the most advice, guidance, teaching, expertise, and help with stock trades.
Such brokers are expensive to trade with, so are well suited for long-term traders with a large amount to invest.
Novice Traders
Novice traders will benefit from the full-service brokers in extra help and guidance. Even so, if you are a novice, do not depend on your broker to make trading decisions for you.
Why?
Broker stock advice is dismal and will slowly drain your principal or stop you from earning the big money that professional independent traders make. This is the experience I had using full service brokers, and that is the general trend for other traders as well.
In addition, full-service brokers are generally not penny stock friendly. They will not be of help for trading penny stocks.
More than ever, full-service brokers are offering there services in an online trading format, but will help their clients by phone usually for an extra fee on top of commissions.
Full service brokers charge the most money for trades and for all other services - services that are increasingly offered by discount brokers for free or a very small fee.
To stay competitive, a number of full service brokers have dramatically lowered their fees, and offer more online resources.
Even so, such brokers best serve the long-term investor with big pockets.
In summary
My advice to those studying this site for penny stock trading... stay away from full-service brokers.
You have now completed this first of six short pages dedicated to choosing the right penny stock broker for you.
