"Etrade", "E*Trade", "E Trade" and "E-trade" are ™ E*TRADE FINANCIAL Corp. Broker banner images © and ™ their respective owners.

Etrade was a pioneer in the early days of online stock trading. However, as time has passed, it has fallen by the wayside. Its relentless expansion efforts have resulted in inefficiency, poor customer service, and the need to tack on lots of hidden fees. The result is that Etrade reviews have gotten worse and worse in recent years. As the above figures show, most investors would be better off with one of the newer, more efficient online brokerages, like Zecco.com or TradeKing.com.

Common alternate names for Etrade are: E-trade, E*trade, E trade, and Etrade Financial.
