On a side note about E-trade listening to us on these boards, I remember someone posted a complaint recently that E-trade had the default order checked as "buy" and the type of trade as "market". They suggested that this should not be checked, rather it would be better to force someone to make a conscious choice, so mistakes would be less likely. Well, within a week, it was done. I'm impressed, I continue to get instantaneous trades, I particularly like the charts (by minute, hour, day, week, or month), which I could not find when I tried Datek. I have just opened up an account with Brown (to spread my IRA's around), and will report back with results as soon as I get it rolled over from Fidelity. If I don't like Brown, I'll be rolling it into E-trade, where I have my Roth IRA already (also rolled over from Fidelity, who, by the way, has reduced their online trade commissions to a flat 19.95). Ain't competition great?
