Esteban, I appreciate your financial analysis to figure out what the best deal is. However, here's the problem. It appears you are not even in the game, if you are not using level 2. No wonder you don't think you could do any better.

According to the numbers you provided, if you can improve 1/16th on just a quarter or your trades, you have more than made up the price difference.

BTW, you can reduce your $10,000 per year expense to ZERO, by trading at Webstreet. What makes you think that you can justify spending an additional $10,000 per year at Datek? I can only infer that you somehow think Datek is $10,000/yr better than Webstreet, but the other companies are not that much better than Datek. I'm trying to learn all this from the experts on SI, so please help.
