I spoke to tech support yesterday and they didn't mention that. Glad to hear it. It seems like there are so many variables that can impact on our execution speed. I have a DSL line and my provider has told me that Exodus who is their back bone provider has been having routing problems with IP addresses in the northeast U.S. The tech guy at WS was interested in hearing that. Then they talk about the traffic on the net. At Web Street's urging I upgraded my computer from a 200mmx to a 466 Celeron. All in the name of trying to increase execution speed. When you get your trade in, there is US Clearing and the market makers to be concerned with. I guess the bottom line is you can only uphold your end of the bargain by having decent computer equipment and IP speed. The rest is out of our hands.
