Got a query as Etrades brokerage fee of 32 dollars is that per trade (buy or sell) or is it for a certain amount of trades. So if I bought and sold I would need to at least make over 64 dollars to get any kind of profit. Am I right in my understanding?

1c by 100,000 = $1000 10c by 1,000 = $100 It is a case of turnover. However a loss is the same and a large percentage of traders lose money as do most punters at the races,

But then etrade is probably the most expensive online broker if your trades are going to be <$10000. Not to mention they are unreliable too.
