Fidelity Pros
Fidelity Investments selection of financial products, combined with 24/7 customer service, gives the broker an edge over other brokers. Firstrade, for example, doesn’t offer
24/7 customer service; and Scottrade
doesn’t offer futures or forex.
Fidelity clients can access bank accounts, retirement products, equities, fixed-income all with one log-in.
The vast majority of brokers don’t have such a wide variety, TD Ameritrade being a rare exception.
Fidelity Cons
Fidelity touts its advanced trading platforms, but limits them to active traders. TD Ameritrade, in comparison, has no such requirements for its
advanced platforms.
Fidelity’s standard commission of $4.95 is higher than some of its rivals, such as Ally Invest ($3.95-$4.95) and Firstrade
($0), both of which are known to be quality firms. Furthermore, Fidelity’s charge for options ($0.65 per contract) is higher than
at both Ally Invest and Firstrade, which charge only $0.65 and $0 per contract respectively.
