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.

Sejarah Kerajaan Singasari dimulai semenjak tahun  Sejarah Kerajaan Singasari | Materi dan Ringkasan Lengkap

Asal Mula Berdirinya Kerajaan Singasari

Kisah berdirinya Kerajaan Singasari bermula dari rasa cinta Ken Arok kepada istri Tunggul Ametung. Pada ketika itu, gotong royong Ken Arok hanyalah seorang pengawal dari Bupati Tunggul Ametung. Dalam menjalankan tugasnya, Ken Arok mulai terpikat dengan kecantikan istri sang majikan, hingga pada balasannya untuk merebut perempuan tersebut, Ken Arok berkhianat dan membunuh Tunggul Ametung.

Tragedi pembunuhan untuk mendapat istri dari Tunggul Ametung tidak hanya terjadi sekali dengan satu korban jiwa, namun ada korban yang lain. Karena benar benar telah terpikat dengan kejelitaan istri Tunggul Ametung yang berjulukan Ken Dedes, Ken Arok memaksa Mpu Gandring seorang pembuat keris untuk menawarkan kerisnya, semoga dapat dipakai untuk membunuh Tunggul Ametung.

Dalam kisah Sejarah Kerajaan Singasari diceritakan bahwa gotong royong keris yang diminta belumlah sempurna, sehingga Mpu Gandring enggan memberikannya kepada Ken Arok. Namun, Ken Arok memaksa, hingga pada balasannya dia merebut keris tersebut, dan menggunakannya untuk membunuh Mpu Gandring.

Sehingga, sebelum Ken Arok memakai keris tersebut untuk membunuh Tunggul Ametung, dia telah menggunakannya terlebih dahulu untuk membunuh sang pembuatnya, yakni Mpu Gandring. Setelah itu, barulah Ken Arok menemui Tunggul Ametung dan membunuhnya. Lepas itu, dia memperistri Ken Dedes.

Masih menyoal keris yang dipakai untuk membunuh tersebut. Ketidaksabaran Ken Arok ketika merebut keris yang belum tepat tersebut berbuntut panjang dalam pembentukan Sejarah Kerajaan Singasari. Pada ketika Mpu Gandring dibunuh dengan keris tersebut, sebelum wafat dia sempat menciptakan sebuah kutukan bahwa keris tersebut kelak akan membuhuh Ken Arok hingga tujuh turunan.

Namun, sebelum kutukan tersebut benar benar terjadi, Ken Arok telah sempat merasakan manisnya menjadi seorang raja dari pemerintahan yang ditinggalkan oleh Tunggul Ametung. Ada banyak versi mengenai alur Sejarah Kerajaan Singasari yang dibentuk oleh banyak sekali pihak. Masing masing mempunyai keunggulan dan juga kekurangan.

Peninggalan Sejarah Kerajaan Singasari

Beberapa bukti peninggalan Kerajaan Singasari ialah berupa candi candi yang banyak ditemukan di daerah Jawa Timur mulai dari Singasari hingga Malang. Dalam sebuah kitab karangan Mpu Prapanca yang berjudul Negarakertagama, disebutkan nama nama raja yang pernah memerintah Kerajaan Singasari. Jelas hal ini kian menerangkan bahwa keberadaan Kerajaan Singasari ini benar benar ada.

Dalam Kitab Pararaton bahkan dibahas panjang mengenai sosok Ken Arok. Kitab tersebut mengungkap bahwa Ken Arok mempunyai banyak keajaiban, bahkan yang tidak masuk akal. Oleh alasannya ialah itu, banyak yang menganggap apa yang diceritakan mengenai Ken Arok ini hanyalah sekadar dongeng belaka. Namun, jikalau ditinjau dari sisi akademis, melalui banyak sekali macam prasasti yang ditemukan, sosok Ken Arok memang benar benar ada dalam Sejarah Kerajaan Singasari dan menjadi salah satu rajanya.

Terlepas apakah dongeng dari setiap versi tersebut benar atau salah, yang terang keberadaan Kerajaan Singasari benar benar ada dan dapat dibuktikan secara ilmiah. Apalagi kini zaman semakin modern. Berbagai artefak yang ditinggalkan dapat dihitung usianya.
