jawd-

Thanks for the reply, if you're still there, do you mind answering a few questions?
- How long does it usually take to post the stock to your Datek account after you've placed the limit order (on average, assuming your limit beats the best MM bid)?
- Have you ever had problems of the partial fill variety?
- Any other glaring problems other than speed?
- What is MB (I'm assuming it's the same as Datek's system of posting through an ECM like Island) and what are the specifics?

And, BTW, I just checked out island's web site (www.isld.com), it looks like a way to trade between the spread with faster executions and a more reliable server - do you know anything about this and how to look into possibly getting started with it?

Thanks again and enjoy the water or the golf this weekend
