classes

Hi,
I have 2 classes that have identical methods. Should I write 2 classes, or
a parent and 2 subclasses? The class is "brokerage" as in Ameritrade and
InteractiveBrokers. They both have methods like: connect, placeOrder,
getQuote, getTransactionHistory... but the code to perform these actions is
totally different between classes.
I'm just wondering, what do I gain by making a single parent, and
subclassing?
Thanks
Jay
