ShareBuilder from ING DIRECT Investing, Inc. has introduced a new online IPO Center providing the latest news, dates and performance information to help self-directed investors track recent and soon-to-come initial public offerings and determine what new-to-market securities may be a good fit for their portfolios. Through the IPO Center, customers have direct access to a full calendar of upcoming offerings and details on each, including company fundamentals and the issuers' prospectuses. For recent IPOs, the center links to detailed quotes and performance pages featuring more in-depth information and tools including interactive charts, key stats and ratios, and the ability to buy or sell securities in just a few clicks. ShareBuilder's IPO Center was introduced in conjunction with a number of new research and trading tools for active investors including: New Trade Types -- ShareBuilder recently added Trailing Stops to its list of trade types, allowing investors to set stop loss orders at a percentage level or dollar amount below market price. This adds to a full stable of trading options for investors, including: Market, Limit, Stop-Loss, Stop-Limit and Market on Close. Customizable Charts -- Customers can now view their buy and sell transactions as key "events" on stocks charts, as well as other market events including dividends, earnings, splits, ratings changes and other news. Quick-Quote Toolbar -- A new easy-to-use pop-up toolbar allows customers to check portfolio holdings, watch lists, news and markets -- or look up a symbol and place a quick trade -- from anywhere within the research center. ShareBuilder offers multiple ways to invest in securities, with a full selection of real-time market, limit and stop-loss order types, or through proprietary Automatic Investing platform, which enables customers to schedule partial-share purchases of stocks, mutual funds and ETFs -- ahead of time and with reduced commissions.
