I would like to know what percentage of retail investors use various houses: TD, BMO, ETRADE, etc. I will list as many of retail houses as I can and please only click once on the house that you use unless you use 2 or more accounts. We have a diverse group of retail investors on this site and we may approximate the real world % numbers.

The reason I am interested in those numbers is that some houses have duel retail and institutional activities. By listing all the ones that offer retail (as far as I know) and seeing how successful they are at attracting retail investors as clients, we can maybe judge if activity by those houses is driven more by retail vs institutional activity.

I know there are a thousand different variables that can skew this but please humour me.

I will post a final ranking along with some thoughts of mine on the subject of house positions.

If I fail to name the house you trade with, please add it to the list.

Thanks to all that participate,

Glorieux
