>>I would venture a guess that most of the people who
are currently daytrading with brokers such as datek probably do not
have > $100K in their accounts ...

I dunno about that one. Serious daytraders often have
well in excess of 100k in the account. In the past,
Datek has catered to, and attracted, serious daytraders
who (I infer from many posts here in the past) do (did)
have that kind of money in their accounts. Actually,
if Datek had ever done options, I might have put that
kind of money in. I do not claim smarts, but luck
counts too <gg>.

I agree those who do should wonder. I also expect those
who do (did) are (were) smart enough to bail without comment.
If not, well, ...

Since I never did, I feel free to comment. My comment is,
I ain't got my check yet. Ordered last Friday. Gulp, well,
we'll see ...

Maybe I laughed too early, y'think?
