<<Etrade Canada and Webbroker crash all the time...>>

You're telling me. Guess which number is on my speed dial. Got a problem with Investorline Wednesday. When I sent my order I received the answer: "There was a problem in the transmission of your order. Please call this number immediately." I don't tell you the sh*t they had to go thru to find what happened and where was my damn order. They found nothing. My order is still somewhere in cyberspace (well, it probably never left my computer). Oh! I got the online discount for the phone order (didn't want to take another chance online), but by that time RIM went up 40 cents. That's the kind of freaky things that are slowly pushing me toward longer duration trades with lower volatility stocks that have a good 2-3 days momentum. At least it eliminate the slow and problem prone broker factor. If sh*t happens, you still have time to wipe yourself. Now the only problem is to find those stocks. LOL.

(I didn't mean we were better than the States (far from that), just that there is room for improvement there too.)
