I opened an account with datek and will be funding it shortly. I am interested in datek because of the speed with which they can execute orders, especially short sales. My understanding is that the shares available to short are computerized and there is no waiting as with other brokers.
I have bookmarked the order entry sites as you suggested. According to this thread, market orders die, marketable limit orders are the way to get fast execution. Do you feel this is the case? What do you recommend? TIA Bob
