We've all seen Wall Street and hankered for some easy stock-market millions. But before you can sniff those bank-fresh bills, you'll want to make sure your online broker doesn't have his snout in your trough.

The smart money is on a cheap online broker that won't hog your profits, and there are plenty to choose from that offer flexibility and all those savvy, market numbers without hidden charges or outrageous stock-trading costs.
