Aims to: Give active investors access to the strategies of professional portfolio managers and registered investment advisers for as little as $3,000 per account vs. a minimum account size of $500,000 that's typically required; and to offer deep discounts on trading commissions.

Needs improvement: The site could feature a broader range of investment strategies that would include ETFs offering exposure to other asset classes, such as commodities.
