New in the USA. What is the dumb phone of brokerage platforms? Looking for the most boring and simple yet reliable company.
I only need a big buy button, and a big sell button. Only stocks & ETFs, and an average return for idle cash, not even the highest out there. I don’t need charts, research or notifications. I trade once a quarter or less. I am very boring.
Thank you for your help.

It sounds like you want Robinhood.

But you should probably get Fidelity, Vanguard, or Schwab

like

Yup

Vanguard

Yeah Robinhood is the way to go.

That is how it was marketed a few years ago for sure. However, the brokerage has really matured a lot in the last couple of years and has pulled in huge amounts of investors lately and has gained widespread acceptance institutionally.

One of the best out there to do it, especially for simple investment accounts.

Robinhood for beginners and Fidelity for advanced users/investors

Fidelity or even Merrill edge

Schwab has all the bells and whistles but you can still use it like a dumb phone. I don’t trust Robinhood to not take margin and have basic consumer protections. I think they finally added a beneficiary field but it took a suspiciously long period of time.
