Best Online Stock Trading Brokers for 2018 If you’re looking for a way to build more wealth in 2018, getting started with one of the best online brokerage accounts is a solid first step. Doing so will allow you to invest outside your traditional retirement accounts and on your own terms. The best part is, the best online brokerage firms charge little or no fees and offer excellent resources that can help you learn more about investing along the way. Of course, not all brokerage firms are created equal, and that’s why we took the time to break down each of their details and rank the top options on an array of factors. If you’re looking for a new way to invest this year and are ready to strike out on your own, the following online brokerage accounts should be at the top of your list.What Matters When You Trade Stocks on Your Own? Managing your own money can be a stressful endeavor. To minimize this, and to minimize information overload that tends to come from watching the markets 24/7, there are a few must-haves to look for in an online broker. Clean interface. When I trade, I want to be able to easily find my order entry ticket. I don’t want it buried under a number of drop downs. This interface should have intuitive access to see your balance, available cash, positions with real time P/L and all be easily navigated. Quick access to basic charting. A chart tells me where the stock has been recently. I don’t trade minute to minute anymore, so I don’t need complex tools like stochastics or retracement lines. All that’s important is that I have a basic chart on a yearly, monthly, weekly, daily and intra day time period. I use a chart to see current price relative to those time periods, mainly to avoid purchasing at a bad price. Low fees. One of the biggest roadblocks to building wealth is fees incurred to invest your hard-earned dollars. Because the fees charged by different brokerage firms vary so dramatically, it’s crucial to seek out options that charge low fees (or no fees) for account management and trades. There are over 50 online brokerages where you can open an account. Beyond the my three rules above, best online brokerage accounts aren’t just for trading stocks. Sure, many of them started as online stock trading accounts, but now they’re full-fledged trading, saving, investing, retirement planning, and banking machines. This industry is more complex than the average person thinks. You shouldn’t just pick any online broker and sign up for an account. The best online broker for one person is often completely different for the next person. Use this resource as a guide to your decision process. Figure out what features are best for you, and make your selection. What Makes a Great Online Broker? I analyzed a number of elements to come to my decision on which brokers are the best. Later in this post, I provide full details on how I selected the best online brokerages. When you take all the features, resources, trading platforms, and technology into account (while also considering every type of trader), the full-service brokers, like E*TRADE and TD Ameritrade are the best for the largest number of people. For those simply looking to make cheap trades, I would recommend going with Optionshouse. If you’re a very advanced trader, high-volume trader, or a professional who manages money, I recommend going with Interactive Brokers. However, I didn’t include Interactive Brokers on my list because they’re best for a very small group of traders and the platform is very complex. Top Qualities of Standout Online Trading Platforms Quality trading tools and technology Multiple trading platforms for all levels of traders Excellent mobile trading features Solid navigation that displays the relevant information where you want it Quality educational resources and research for trader development There’s more to selecting an online broker than price. You have to consider the resources you’re getting for the cost you pay per trade. For example, my colleague, who is also an ex-trader, likes to use a combination of stock and options trade in his longer-term trading. He recently switched over to Fidelity because he really liked the cash management features, but was very disappointed by complex order entry, sub-par options execution and frustrating navigation. He’s currently making the switch to one of the brokers I profile here.

Jejak Peninggalan Nabi Adam Ditemukan Di Afrika

Peninggalan Nabi Adam - Dunia pada tahun 2003 sempat dihebohkan dengan inovasi sebuah jejak kaki berukuran besar yang bentuknya ibarat jejak kaki manusia. Jejak kaki tersebut terdapat di sebuah watu yang terletak tak jauh dari Kota Mpaluzi, Afrika Selatan. Ukurannya yang mencapai panjang 121 cm (4 feet) menciptakan banyak spekulasi bermunculan wacana asal permintaan jejak kaki ini. Salah satu pendapat terpopuler menyampaikan kalau jejak kaki ini ialah jejak kaki peninggalan nabi Adam, nenek moyang insan bumi. Benarkah pendapat tersebut? Seperti apa pembuktiannya? Simaklah uraian kami berikut ini.

Peninggalan Nabi Adam

Dari hasil uji laboratorium diketahui bahwa jejak kaki yang diperkirakan merupakan peninggalan Nabi Adam tersebut ternyata telah berusia 200 juta tahun. Masa 200 tahun yang kemudian dalam ilmu geologi berarti masuk ke dalam zaman mesozoikum (65-251 juta tahun lalu). Dalam masa tersebut, dunia mengalami banyak perubahan, mulai dari kegiatan tektonik yang tinggi, fluktuasi iklim yang ekstrim, pergeseran lempeng benua, dan lain sebagainya.

Adapun alasannya ialah perubahan ekstrim yang terjadi di permukaan bumi, pada zaman mesozoikum tersebut diperkirakan telah terjadi perkembangan evolusi yang menghasilkan diversifikasi jenis-jenis mahluk hidup baru, termasuk binatang dan tumbuhan. Pada zaman mezosoikum ini pulalah diperkirakan awal mula lahirnya hewan-hewan mamalia di muka bumi. [Baca Juga : Kisah Nabi Muhammad Membelah Bulan]

Jejak kaki Nabi Adam

Dari teori geologi yang menyebut bahwa jejak kaki insan berukuran besar yang ditemukan itu berasal dari zaman mezosoikum, beberapa pakar kemudian beropini bahwa jejak kaki tersebut merupakan jejak kaki peninggalan Nabi Adam. Pendapat ini ditunjang oleh beberapa bukti fisik maupun bukti tertulis berikut :

Dari penelitian yang selama ini dilakukan, diketahui bahwa secara normal kaki insan panjangnya kurang lebih ialah sekitar 15% dari tinggi badannya. Ini berarti kalau hal ini juga berlaku terhadap jejak kaki besar tersebut, maka si pemilik jejak kaki diperkirakan mempunyai tinggi tubuh sektar 8,13 meter. [BACA : Asal Usul Manusia]

 sempat dihebohkan dengan inovasi sebuah jejak kaki berukuran besar yang bentuknya menyer Jejak Peninggalan Nabi Adam Ditemukan di Afrika
Tinggi tubuh si pemilik jejak kaki rupanya nyaris sama persis dengan tinggi tubuh Nabi Muhammad yang diterangkan dalam Hadits Bukhari Vol.IV No.543. Hadist tersebut membuktikan bahwa Nabi Muhammad mempunyai tinggi sekitar 60 hasta ketika di nirwana dan ketika diturunkan ke bumi tingginya menyusut jadi 20 hasta atau sekitar 9,8 meter.

Kedua bukti tersebut memang sangat kurang menggambarkan dan menguatkan pendapat bahwa jejak kaki yang terdapat pada watu itu merupakan jejak kaki peninggalan Nabi Adam. Oleh alasannya ialah itu banyak pula yang mencibir pendapat ini. Mereka yang mencibir umumnya mempunyai pendapat lain terkait asal permintaan si jejak kaki tersebut. Pendapat mereka contohnya :
  1. Jejak kaki tersebut berasal dari jejak kaki bangsa Nisnas. Sebuah mahluk ibarat insan yang lahir sebelum kemunculan Nabi Adam ke dunia.
  2. Jejak kaki yang dianggap peninggalan Nabi Adam tersebut sebenarnya merupakan jejak kaki dari Syeitan yang diturunkan lebih dahulu ke muka bumi.
  3. Jejak kaki tersebut merupakan hasil rekayasa sebagai penarik minat wisatawan lokal dan mancanegara untuk berkunjung ke Afrika Selatan.

Terlepas dari pendapat-pendapat ini, kita sebagai muslim boleh mempercayai pendapat manapun yang disuka, asalkan pendapat yang kita pilih berlandaskan pada dasar teori dan bukti yang kuat. Saya sendiri percaya kalau jejak kaki itu memang merupakan peninggalan nabi Adam. Bagaimana dengan Anda?
