With pressure mounting amongst trading outfits to reduce commissions and offer free services and trading, Ameritrade has announced that it will now offer commission-free trading on 100 ETFs covering a broad spectrum of asset classes ranging from Emerging Markets and Commodities to Bonds and Select Sectors. Being able to trade ETFs with no commissions can make certain strategies a success, especially when amounts traded are smaller – like how the market gains more on the first day of the month than the rest of the month combined (see ETF Strategy and data). Here is the current list in one nice table as provided by Ameritrade (their table makes you click through several tabs to see all offerings – [source]):
