Firstrade Securities, the award- winning online brokerage firm, is launching a new promotion worth almost $1,000 to open a new, (non-IRA, non Retirement) brokerage account or transfer assets.

New York, NY (PRWeb) February 28, 2007 -- Firstrade Securities, the award- winning online brokerage firm, is launching a new promotion worth almost $1,000 to open a new, (non-IRA, non Retirement) brokerage account or transfer assets.

"Historically, we see the largest number of new accounts in the 1st Quarter of each year, so we want to give potential customers an extra incentive to come to Firstrade," explains Firstrade Founder and President, John Liu. "While they join for the 100 free trades, the majority stay for our $6.95 flat trade pricing, our fast execution and no doubt our low mutual fund transaction rates of only $9.95."

The details of the promotion, based on amount of assets 30 days from account opening are as follows:

Accounts $50,000 or more - Account receives 100 commission-free trades and up to $100 Transfer rebate as well as a $100 cash bonus credited to the account.

Accounts $25,000 - $49,999 - Account receives 100 commission-free trades and up to $100 Transfer rebate. (New accounts would only get 100 free trades.)

Accounts $2,000 < $24,999 - Account receives 100 commission-free trades.

Firstrade has consistently been recognized among online brokers for its high level of service, varied product offerings and low cost to the investor. For example, in 2006, Kiplinger Personal Finance named Firstrade the "Clear Winner" in the Mutual Funds Category and the "Top Clean-Hands Firm" in the Online Brokerage Industry. SmartMoney has named Firstrade "the Best Deal" among online discount brokerages.
