>>you need to open a discount brokerage account. With commission of $10-$12 per trade, comission is no longer part of the profit/loss picture.<<

Thean, I've been with Discover (old Lombard) for about 4 years now. At $14.95, the commissions really don't mean much to me. To be honest, I used to be quite manic in the trading department and commissions were never a big issue. I feel the same with taxes. When it is time to buy or time to sell I am more concerned with capital appreciation/preservation than these other things.
