Zecco.com says that you get up to 10 free trades per day, 40 per month. After that, it is just $3.50 per trade. According to the article, they make their money by letting people trade on margin and in options.

Fab,
Watch out for some of these folks!
They have to be solid and reputable. And not have any gimmicks!
You will find you just need some basics.
A lot of the bells and whistles are already internet available.
