Tips for Stock Brokerage Platforms
In trading stocks, your stock trading software, including your stock charting package is very important. Look for a stock brokerage firm that has an easy to use platform and reliable data feed. Also, check to make sure they have a good inventory of shorts available to short specific stocks.
Try the charting software out thru the trial period offered to see if you are comfortable trading with the looks and speed of the stock charts. Another feature some charting software includes is the ability to link a stock scanner to the stock chart for fast viewing. This is important so check with your stock brokerage firm to find out if this is available.
