Brokerage commissions climb for small investors as new schedules raise costs by 1.1 percentage points on odd lots and 10 to 15 percent on transactions under five thousand dollars. For a twenty share buy at thirty dollars, the per trade cost climbs to about 3.5 percent, while larger round lots incur lower percentage fees.
