confirmations are still slow.. sometimes taking 2 to 3 hours to get confirmation

I still feel this is unacceptable for active traders and therefore don't use Etrade for daytrading. However it isn't much of a problem for position trades. I am hoping though, that when they get ARCA up and running, the problem with confirmations goes away as it should be instantaneous.

I'm also looking forward to the added liquidity ARCA will have with all the etraders now using it. That will give me two good ecn choices to trade with (island being the other). I do wonder, however, how Etrade will implement ARCA. I'm hoping it's in the 'post no preference' variety only.

And most of all, I was pleasantly surprised with INCA access afterhours. I hope this means we get to see the INCA book. Now, if they would only offer it pre-market too, I'd be ecstatic.
