Default Re: Where should I open a Roth IRA?

Anyone know how I can transfer my Roth IRA account from Ameritrade to Scottrade? The transaction fees are going to handcuff me from making most trades.

I think ScottTrade will have to request it for you. So you should open the ScottTrade account and fill out the paper work with them. They will forward it to Amertrade.

You can get Vanguard and many other mutual funds through Scottrade with absolutely no transaction fees.

Not true. Scottrade charges $17 in handling fees for all "No Load" mutual funds. See http://scottrade.com/frame_mutualfunds.asp for their terms and conditions.

Sorry, you are wrong.
Scottrade only charges transaction fees if the trades are placed by phone or in person with a broker. Online no-load mutual fund purchases are completely free.

Well I'll be… It looks like you're right after all--I apologize.
