How Trading Costs Affect Your P&L

A $5 difference per trade seems small — until you multiply by frequency:

Trades/MonthSaved per TradeMonthlyAnnual
10$5.00$50$600
50$5.00$250$3,000
200$5.00$1,000$12,000
500$5.00$2,500$30,000
$12 000 saved per year at 200trades/month vs a typical broker. That is not a fee — that is a second income.
