I've begin reading this thread from message #1 and came across the following from GaBard:

"Multiple orders on the same stock you only get charge once a day for comission."

Is this really the case? I use an online discount broker with $12 trades up to 5K shares. I made the mistake of putting a buy order in for 10K and got slapped with $100 commission (1% of total so you know it was a penny stock ;-). Lesson learned. I now do buys in blocks of 5K to get the $12 commish so that a 10K buy has a $24 commish instead of $100.

Am I missing something here? Or just with the wrong broker?

Looking forward to the next 300+ posts....Ken
