<<Off Topic: So you are saying 2.5 cents a share? Sounds expensive.>>

Jack, I realize 2.5 cents a share is expensive, but can you trade 100 shares for $2.50 on a transparent system on AB Whatley or anywhere else? I thought the minimum charge is $20 plus. One of the successful daytraders I was chatting with trades 30000 to 10000 shares a day in 1000 share increments after only 8 months. He says whenever he starts trading badly, he goes back to 100 share trades to get back in the groove.

I hesitate to go to a system like AB Whatley because I don't know if I can manage the overhead of $1000 a day in commissions.
