"There is additional 'commission' being funneled through there somewhere and it is in the stock price you pay."

you are correct on stock transactions.

what about options?ÿ my experience is that i haveÿnot been screwed by discounters such as etrade, discover or pacific.ÿ i can check out the time, volume and price on a "bloomberg" machine. if there is an exercise, the price is fixed by the options contract.ÿ found your comments very informative.

regards
