Best Online Stock Trading Brokers for 2018 If you’re looking for a way to build more wealth in 2018, getting started with one of the best online brokerage accounts is a solid first step. Doing so will allow you to invest outside your traditional retirement accounts and on your own terms. The best part is, the best online brokerage firms charge little or no fees and offer excellent resources that can help you learn more about investing along the way. Of course, not all brokerage firms are created equal, and that’s why we took the time to break down each of their details and rank the top options on an array of factors. If you’re looking for a new way to invest this year and are ready to strike out on your own, the following online brokerage accounts should be at the top of your list.What Matters When You Trade Stocks on Your Own? Managing your own money can be a stressful endeavor. To minimize this, and to minimize information overload that tends to come from watching the markets 24/7, there are a few must-haves to look for in an online broker. Clean interface. When I trade, I want to be able to easily find my order entry ticket. I don’t want it buried under a number of drop downs. This interface should have intuitive access to see your balance, available cash, positions with real time P/L and all be easily navigated. Quick access to basic charting. A chart tells me where the stock has been recently. I don’t trade minute to minute anymore, so I don’t need complex tools like stochastics or retracement lines. All that’s important is that I have a basic chart on a yearly, monthly, weekly, daily and intra day time period. I use a chart to see current price relative to those time periods, mainly to avoid purchasing at a bad price. Low fees. One of the biggest roadblocks to building wealth is fees incurred to invest your hard-earned dollars. Because the fees charged by different brokerage firms vary so dramatically, it’s crucial to seek out options that charge low fees (or no fees) for account management and trades. There are over 50 online brokerages where you can open an account. Beyond the my three rules above, best online brokerage accounts aren’t just for trading stocks. Sure, many of them started as online stock trading accounts, but now they’re full-fledged trading, saving, investing, retirement planning, and banking machines. This industry is more complex than the average person thinks. You shouldn’t just pick any online broker and sign up for an account. The best online broker for one person is often completely different for the next person. Use this resource as a guide to your decision process. Figure out what features are best for you, and make your selection. What Makes a Great Online Broker? I analyzed a number of elements to come to my decision on which brokers are the best. Later in this post, I provide full details on how I selected the best online brokerages. When you take all the features, resources, trading platforms, and technology into account (while also considering every type of trader), the full-service brokers, like E*TRADE and TD Ameritrade are the best for the largest number of people. For those simply looking to make cheap trades, I would recommend going with Optionshouse. If you’re a very advanced trader, high-volume trader, or a professional who manages money, I recommend going with Interactive Brokers. However, I didn’t include Interactive Brokers on my list because they’re best for a very small group of traders and the platform is very complex. Top Qualities of Standout Online Trading Platforms Quality trading tools and technology Multiple trading platforms for all levels of traders Excellent mobile trading features Solid navigation that displays the relevant information where you want it Quality educational resources and research for trader development There’s more to selecting an online broker than price. You have to consider the resources you’re getting for the cost you pay per trade. For example, my colleague, who is also an ex-trader, likes to use a combination of stock and options trade in his longer-term trading. He recently switched over to Fidelity because he really liked the cash management features, but was very disappointed by complex order entry, sub-par options execution and frustrating navigation. He’s currently making the switch to one of the brokers I profile here.

Raja pertama sekaligus yang mendirikan Kerajaan Majapahit ialah Raden Rama Wijaya yang kemudian disusul oleh anaknya yang berjulukan Jayanegara sebagai raja ke dua Majapahit. Setelah Jayanegara, tahta Kerajaan Majapahit dipegang oleh adik Jayanegara yaitu Tribhuwana Tunggadewi. Tribhuwana Tunggadewi ialah adik Jayanegara namun beda ibu. Jayanegara tidak mempunyai anak pria sehingga yang menjadi penerusnya ialah adik perempuannya beda ibu. Tribhuwana Tunggadewi termasuk raja yang berhasil memulai masa kejayaan Kerajaan Majapahit.

Biografi Tribhuwana Tunggadewi
Kehidupan politik Kerajaan Majapahit masa Tribhuwanatunggadewi ini cukup anggun dan stabil. Bahkan Kerajaan Majapahit mulai melaksanakan ekspansi kawasan kekuasaan dengan dipimpin oleh Mahapatih Gajah Mada dengan sumpah palapanya. Meski pada masa kepemimpinannya masih ada pemberontakan di Majapahit, namun dengan adanya Mahapatih Gajah Mada, pemberontakan tersebut berhasil ditumpas dengan gemilang.

Silsilah dan Biografi Tribhuwanatunggadewi

Nama orisinil Tribhuwana Wijayatunggadewi ialah Dyah Gitarja. Ia ialah raja ke tiga Kerajaan Majapahit yang memerintah pada tahun 1328-1351. Dari prasasti Singasari (1351) sanggup diketahui bahwa ia mempunyai gelar abhiseka Sri Tribhuwanottunggadewi Maharajasa Jayawisnuwardhani. Tribhuwanatunggadewi ini mempunyai adik wanita yang berjulukan Dyah Wiyat dan abang tiri yang berjulukan Jayanegara. Pada masa Jayanegara menjadi raja Majapahit pada tahun 1309-1328, Tribhuwanatunggadewi diangkat menjadi penguasa bawahan di Jiwana dengan gelar Bhre Kahuripan.

Dalam kitab Pararaton dijelaskan bahwa pada masa Jayanegara menjadi raja, ia merasa takut tahtanya terancam, maka ia kemudian melarang ke dua adiknya menikah, termasuk Tribhuwanatunggadewi. Baru sehabis Jayanegara meninggal para ksatriya berdatangan untuk melamar kedua adik Jayanegara tersebut. Akhirnya didapatlah kedua ksatriya sehabis melalui sayembara. Cakradhara berhasil mendapat Dyah Gitarja yaitu Tribhuwanatunggadewi, dan Kudamerta mendapat Dyah Wiyat.

Cakradhara ialah penguasa Singasari dengan gelar Bhre Tumapel. Dari perkawinannya dengan Cakradhara, Tribhuwanatunggadewi mendapat dua anak yaitu Dyah Hayam Wuruk dan Dyah Nertaja. Hayam Wuruk kemudian diangkat menjadi yuwaraja dengan gelar Bhre Kahuripan atau Bhre Jiwana sedangkan Dyah Nertaja diangkat sebagai Bhre Pajang. Kelak yang menggantikan Tribhuwanatunggadewi sebagai raja ialah Hayam Wuruk (baca : Biografi Hayam Wuruk) dan berhasil membawa masa Kejayaan Kerajaan Majapahit.

Pada masa Tribhuwanatunggadewi menjadi raja ini populer sebagai masa ekspansi kekuasaan Majapahit. Ini dikarenakan pada masa tersebut Mahapatih Gajah Mada mengucapkan sumpah palapa di depan para pejabat Majapahit. Sumpah Palapa tersebut berisikan tekad Gajah Mada (baca : Silsilah dan Biografi Gajah Mada) untuk menyatukan Nusantara dibawah kendali Majapahit. Perluasan Majapahit dilakukan ke segala arah. Pada tahun 1343 Majapahit berhasil mengalahkan Kerajaan Pejeng Bali, Dalem Bedahulu dan kemudian seluruh Bali berhasil ditaklukkan.

Perluasan kemudian berlanjut ke Melayu, Adityawarman yang masih mempunyai darah Melayu dikirim untuk menaklukkan sisa-sisa Kerajaan Sriwijaya dan Kerajaan Melayu. Adityawarman berhasil dan kemudian diangkat menjadi raja bawahan di Sumatera. Kitab Negarakertagama mencatatkan bahwa selesai dari pemerintahan Tribhuwanatunggadewi ialah tahun 1350 bersamaan dengan meninggalnya Gayatri. Namun sumber informasi sejarah Kerajaan Majapahit ini tidak akurat, alasannya berdasarkan prasasti Singasari, Tribhuwana masih menjadi ratu Majapahit pada tahun 1351.

Perkiraan Tribhuwana turun tahta ialah pada tahun 1351 sehabis menuntaskan prasasti Singhasari. Setelah selesai menjadi ratu Majapahit, Tribhuwana kemudian kembali menjadi Bhre Kahuripan yang tergabung dalam Saptaprabhu. Saptaprabhu ini semacam dewan pertimbangan agung yang anggotanya ialah kalangan keluarga kerajaan. Setelah Tribhuwana turun tahta, maka penerusnya ialah anakanya yaitu Hayam Wuruk. Sedangkan kapan meninggalnya Tribhuwana, tidak diketahui dengan niscaya kapan tahunnya. Kitab Pararaton hanya menyebutkan bahwa Bhre Kahuripan meninggal dunia sehabis pengangkatan Gajah Enggon sebagai patih yaitu pada tahun 1371.


Masih berdasarkan Pararaton, Tribhuwana Wijayatunggadewi didharmakan dalam Candi Pantarapura yang letaknya di desa Panggih. Sedangkan Cakradhara atau Kertawardhana Bhre Tumapel meninggal pada tahun 1386 dan didharmakan di Candi Sarwa Jayapurwa yang letaknya di desa Japan.
