I started with Fido mutual fund accounts, both taxable and IRA. Converted both to brokerage accounts in early 90's so I could own stocks as well as funds. I've also purchased individual bonds in the secondary market thru Fido. And they have some CDs available.
Very pleased with their service and the fee structure in pretty reasonable. I pay $10.95 stock commission and trade anywhere from 10 to 30 times a year. The commission is lower for either large dollar balance accounts or high trading volume accounts. Very active traders pay only $8.
The online trading platform is okay but try to get them to let you use Active Trader Pro instead. It's a much better tool. There are minimum activity requirements to get it but they might make an exception if you insist. I've never met the minimum but was grandfathered into ATP from another investor software which they discontinued.
