The Zecco Inside Scoop

Unlimited Free Trades for Customers!

As you all know this has been one of the most volatile times in stock market history, with each day breaking historical volume records. All of us are dealing with the stresses and challenges in this wild market. Investors and industry insiders are all feeling the heat. Fortunes were made and lost in the period of hours last week.

I know our success at Zecco is tied to your success. I want to do everything possible to help you have an outstanding trading experience. And we’re putting our money where our mouth is. To thank our loyal customers for riding these crazy market waves at Zecco Trading, we’re giving away unlimited free equity and options trades for the entire month of October! That’s right, 100% commission-free trading from the 1st through the 31st. No minimum balance required, no hidden fees, nada! Hey, that could be a couple tanks of $4 gas for a lot of you! Or a lot more for you active traders. Just our way of saying Thank You!

I would also like to invite our colleagues at E*Trade, Ameritrade, Scottrade and Schwab to do the same. Joe? Don? Roger? Chuck?

Crickets…

A huge thank you to all our loyal Zecco Trading customers. Together we’ll make it through these unprecedented times. I’m honored to be along on this mind-boggling journey with you.

Thank you.  Hopefully this will make up for some of the downtime & slow system response time with this site in the past.

Awesome! But I hope that you really fix the performance issues. It won't do anyone any good if there are no commissions but they can't trade either.

I just started trading in September with Zecco and this is great for us new guys.  Hey I am really glad I started trading with you instead of ETrade.

this should be an interesting month. Zecco please share the trade volume data for the month of Oct. I myself, have made about 60 trades already and am up only $60. Markets don't really work when there is no price.

Zecco will be the market leader soon. It is great to be part of that. Thanks for the freebies this month!

Take advantage of these free trades and
to say thank you and support Zecco, don't forget to click the ads on Zecco's site.  Keep the revenue flowing into Zecco so they can keep supporting us with free trades.  Incidentally, some of the ads that I've clicked turned-out being worthwhile.

Thank you again Zecco!

aeldaher said:

This is a welcome offer but I would be much happier to hear something like "zecco improves performance and availability". I had decided to stop using zecco since the site was consistently down or extremely slow on the days near the LEH bankruptcy, and it was a nightmare dealing with it, specially for people who make several trades a day or who were holding overnight positions during that week-end. I'm now happy to stick around for the next month, and longer if you manage to make me feel I can trust this site again.

been with zecco for nearly 2 years now...must admit, initially had subpar architecture, but continually improves...thank you zecco for your free trades and unlimited trades for Oct!

To me the trading site still feels slow even after the upgrades.  Not sure if anyone else is still experiencing this.

what good are free trades when i cant even see my positions....just like right now   10/14/08 @ 9:41    I can't trade because my positions won't even load up.  Every time there is high volume your system can't keep up.  Do something about it. We want reliability. Esp if you keep making your service less attractive....taking away all those free trades we used to have.

I can't get on!!!!  i can't buy/sell anything


I can't even logon!!    you are costing me thousands of dollars!!!

been with zecco for about a year, i think this is as good as it gets.you guys rock.thanks for everything, you have given me peice of mind while trading. never faced any issue with performance. Excellent site for short term and long term traders, may be day traders would like to disagree.Been with Ameritrade, etrade, scottrade,fidelity etc, believe me this is as good as it gets for full time working professionals. Thanks again

Tradertee said:

The free trades for the month are nice and your performance has been alittle better since you seem to have dropped the blog page.
But being one of the earliest Zecco accounts: March 2007,I still want back the monthly free trades I originally joined Zecco for!

Man-Bear-Pig said:

I dont like having to export my transactons to quicken, or keying them into msn money, try giving away the performance since free trades are limited now anyway

or at least partner up with a major website, yahoo, msn or google so we can download data and import to the portfolio or even trade from their website like msn money has with several brokers

I was having performance issues and did a major computer scan with my virus software AVG (free).  Haven't had any issues with Zecco or any other sites since.

Zecco's crashing again. I hope November will be free trades too. This is ridiculous
October 22, 2008 11:38 AM
 

noahmagram said:

That would be great if I could even log in to trade.  Free trades in November too, then?

I took the time to sign up for thinkorswim while Zecco was down.  Simply can't afford to lose any more money.

Since last one week, I am not able to log in Zecco trading , I made a mistake by this sign up, I am thinking to go to otthers, atlaest thier systems proven, fully tested and stable.

smsn said:

I doubt Zecco has any back up strategy, one day all their servers will crash and we all will see nothing in our trading center everything is ZERO !! Imagine !! How will we claim our money with Zecco !! I am frustrated, what the hell is going on with Zecco, they don't have super technical team who can handle this crash issue !!!

nwmorris said:

this has been a fantastic promotion and has certainly stemmed some losses that people have experienced. I, well, was up a great deal
over the month till two days ago myself (though I'm sure that
the market will recover from the panicing and I'll be fine again sometime in the next few weeks)

I will say that I haven't had any issues with the site really,
I did get thrown to the back-up server one day a week ago or so.... m I had a login problem like smsn said but I simply cleared the cookies out and it was no problem.

I say - Zecco, keep up the commission-free structure and find innovative ways to generate revenue and you will be greatly rewarded by the market place. However, invest in quality hardware and networking to insure up-time and fast and efficient trades.

Good luck, and again, THANK YOU for the month long of free trades .... November would certainly be welcome as well ;-)

I don't have to remind you that the past several weeks have been the most volatile times in the stock market's history. One day we've seen historic gains, the next day historic losses. The numbers have bounced all over the place in a single day and on
