Q&A
Q: What types of fees do brokers typically charge?
A: Fees can fall into the following categories.
- Commission – Most brokers charge a commission fee ranging between $.001 and $.005 to buy and sell stocks. The fees can vary per broker.
- Margin – Similar to borrowing money from a bank, you can borrow money from your broker to buy and sell stocks. The broker will charge you interest for borrowing money.
- Non-trading fees – This includes deposits, withdrawals, and assisted trades with customer service reps.
Q: Should you care about fees?
A: Short answer. No.
If you ever heard the quote “Don’t step over dimes to pick pennies”, this is a perfect example. The effort of worrying about fees isn’t worth your time. Your investment returns will often outweigh the fees you pay to buy and sell stocks.
It’s time to pick a broker and get started!
