What’s the best online trading platform (E*Trade? ScottTrade?)?

Ben Parr asked:


I wish I could do one that did both stocks and commodities and futures, but I’ll be happy with stocks. I want to place my 40k in mutual funds into day trading (don’t worry, I have actual training, classes, risks, know I’m likely to lose, etc.) but I still want to pick one. I want an online platform that’s fast, gets information quickly, executes cheap trades, and is generally reliable and easy to read.

Anyone have experience with good ones?
