Here is an article on comparing online brokers for trading shares.

In relation to AIB we are not out of the troubled water yet. Although the move to guarantee all Irish deposits will help. Make sure you know the risks first.

Thinking bout going with sharewatch?
do you have to pay to join? is there a minimum amount you have to send?
can you send money through credit card?
anyone with any info about them would be appreciated
