Merrill's move is just a trick to avoid for as long as possible the inevitable migration of their customers in droves to the online competition.
why else would they postpone their online trading plans until *december*?? in today's world, can you wait *that* long for something they should have offered 2 years ago?
it's just a smoke screen aimed at their own customers, so the few remaining idiots who stay with them, stay for a little longer.
come december, they will probably delay it until march, and so on.
they missed the train.
they are only now thinking in offering online trading, in DECEMBER, but our ETrade is already taking the next steps in this financial revolution, online banking, FOREX TRADING, global trading network 24 hs a day, etc.
