This is very important. Most brokerage charge around $7 per trade, which makes high-volume trading very very expensive and prohibitive.
Robin Hood is an amazing alternative that charges nada for trades, and once they have an API[1], I think they'd be a great choice for small-time developers looking to do some (low-frequency) algorithmic trading.
