Hi Joe:

Answer--Yes you can trade BB on line, but basically only buy and sell at bid or ask. The only one of the last 10 or so BB's I couldn't trade on-line was MINE on Friday. I called them and they answered on the 3rd ring and said yes, they would execute the trade for me (6000 shares)at the ask of .034. (MINE did not show up as a listed stock on my computer). When I received confirmation minutes later they had gotten it for me at .33. How much I paid for broker assistance I have yet to find out, however once you get used to their system it isn't quite as bad as one thinks. Several times I have gotten prices under ask, and within reasonable execution times. Much better than PBS. I also trade the same way with First Flushing though execution times are somewhat slower. Level II is extremely fast (about 5 seconds) and though not the best I would definitely recommend it for BB's. Hope this helps--Good Luck Trading--GARY

P.S. They put MINE on my Margin Account. (ggg)
