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.

Syarat dan Tata Cara Pengusulan Angka Kredit Guru IV/b Ke Atas

Ada syarat dan tata cara terbaru wacana pengusulan angka kredit guru dengan pangkat dan golongan IV/b ke atas. Ini didasarkan pada telah disosialisasikan dan diedarkannya Surat Edaran Kemdikbud (Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan) No. 67506/A3.3/KP/2016 yang tertanggal 13 Desember 2016 barusan.

Kaprikornus ini berarti semenjak tanggal 1 Januari 2017, pengusulan angka kredit guru sebagaimana disebutkan di atas tidak lagi melalui surat ke Kotak Pos (PO.BOX) Dirjen GTK Kemdikbud (Direktorat Jenderal Guru dan Tenaga Teknis Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan). Entah mengapa hal ini diberlakukan. Sebagai embel-embel informasi, dari yang saya peroleh melalui acara Diklat Pengembangan Karier PTK (Pendidik dan Tenaga Kependidikan) di pertengahan Mei 2016 lalu, bahwa berkas anjuran evaluasi angka kredit guru IV/b Ke Atas yang masuk ke Dirjen GTK melalui kotak pos tersebut mencapai 2000 berkas usulan. Ini kemungkinan menyebabkan personil penilai angka kredit guru di Dirjen GTK menjadi kewalahan. Dan diinformasikan juga bahwa berkas yang diterima pengusulannya hanya sekitar 200 berkas. Kebanyakan permasalahan yang menyebabkan ditolaknya undangan angka kredit guru yaitu warta plagiasi dan sebagainya, terkait karya tulis yang dilampirkan (bagian PKB - Pengembangan Keprofesian Berkelanjutan).

Bila nantinya penyampaian anjuran angka kredit guru ini dilaksanakan di kawasan (LPMP) yang ditunjuk sebagaimana Surat Edaran Kemdikbud dimaksud, maka tentunya akan lebih mempermudah guru dalam memperbaiki atau melengkapi anjuran angka kreditnya jikalau terdapat kekurangan-kekurangan atau perlu perbaikan. Kaprikornus berdasarkan saya, ini justru akan mempermudah guru dari pangkat dan golongan IV/b ke Atas untuk proses pengusulan angka kredit mereka.

Download Surat Edaran Kemdikbud (Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan) wacana Pengusulan Angka Kredit Guru Golongan IV/b Ke Atas Nomor: 67506/A3.3/KP/2016 tanggal 13 Desember 2016 (berlaku mulai tanggal 1 Januari 2017).

Pada ketika anjuran masih harus dikirim ke PO BOX Dirjen GTK, para guru tentu tidak bisa atau sangat sulit melacak apakah berkas anjuran mereka sudah hingga atau tidak, apakah sudah dikoreksi atau tidak, dan kapan akan dikembalikan kepada guru yang bersangkutan. Kaprikornus pada dasarnya ini justru untuk meningkatkan dan meperbaiki pelayanan kepada guru-guru yang ingin memperoleh kenaikan pangkat. Kaprikornus keluarnya Surat Edaran Kemdikbud (Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan) No. 67506/A3.3/KP/2016 yang tertanggal 13 Desember 2016 untuk Pengusulan Angka Kredit Guru Paada Pangkat dan Golongan IV/b Ke Atas ini patut diapresiasi dan disyukuri. Semoga semakin banyak guru-guru yang bisa mencapai pangkat dan golongan yang lebih tinggi hingga ke IV/c dan IV/d.

Lalu bagaimana dengan nasib berkas anjuran yang masuk melalui PO BOX Dirjen GTK hingga tanggal 31 Desember 2016? Berkas-berkas yang sudah dikirim ke Jakarta tersebut akan tetap diproses dan diperiksa oleh Dirjen Pendidikan jenjang masing-masing. Dan jikalau ada berkas yang masuk semenjak tanggal 1 Januari 2017 nanti tidak akan diproses lagi alasannya yaitu sudah bukan kewenangan Dirjen GTK (Guru dan Tenaga Kependidikan) tetapi sudah dialihkan menjadi kewenangan LPMP (Lembaga Penjaminan Mutu Pendidikan) yang telah ditunjuk sesuai daftar yang kami berikan di bawah ini.
