Etrade is offering a huge $600 cash bonus after you deposit any amount over $250,000 into a new IRA or when you rollover your old 401k from other firms. This promotion from E*Trade provides a nice incentive for those of you who are considering opening a new IRA account to save for your retirement. For those of you who are unfamiliar with E*TRADE, it is an innovative site that has made a name for itself in online brokerage with its streamlined trading process, outstanding customer service, and various trading tools. This bonus will be deposited into your account within 8 weeks of initial funding, and the account must remain opened for a minimum of 6 months or the credit may be surrendered. Other promotional bonuses exist for different values of deposits, including $300 or $100. There is only one promotional credit per customer and the offer expires on December 31, 2014.

It is silly to call that huge as if we are going to make such a large investment then 600 USD is way too less and nothing to be too excited about. I used 500 USD bonuses on just 1000 USD investment, so if we double it I get double bonus with OctaFX broker, so it is no rocket science for me to select them instead of this and also I can withdraw the bonus if I complete the required lot size.
