100 Free Trades with New IRA Account from E-Trade!
February 26th, 2009 Posted in Roth IRA
Currently E-Trade is running a pretty sweet promotion in which they will give you 100 free trades when you open any form of IRA account.
Considering the fact that they typically charge $7.99 per trade, this adds up to almost an $800 value!
Offer available for limited time.
E-Trade IRA Account promotion details
- You must maintain a minimum balance of $25,000 (since this is an IRA account, you may wish to rollover your current IRA into the E-Trade IRA account if you cannot meet the minimum balance)
- Offer available with NEW E-Trade IRA accounts only
- Offer available for Roth IRA, traditional IRA, and IRA rollover
- Account must be opened by December 31, 2009

I have been using E-Trade for my IRA for a few years now. Wish they had this promotion when I started!
This IRA promo will mostly benefit those that are doing a self-directed IRA though. If you aren’t making your own investment decisions within your individual retirement plan than it will take a mighty long time to make 100 trades.

How long can you use the unused trades from Etrade?

I believe the trades last throughout the life of the account but you may want to contact a rep to double check. Also, on my recent post regarding this deal one commenter claimed it takes a few months to get these free trades credited to your account. Just an FYI…
