Is getting Wit Capital IPOs as hard as getting E*Trade IPOs now?

Also how is the Wit Capital as an online broker for regular stock trades?

to all,

although i appreciate and find value in top's point system for ipo's.... but just as important is timing and luck, which has nothing to do with a point system or rational thought....for instance, if u would have accepted the last 12 ipo's from Wit indiscriminately or irrespective of point systems or gut feelings, u would be up bigtime.....for example, as of todays close, the last 12 ipos from Wit have done this....npls(16--->22 7/8)....srch(9--->11 7/8)...stmp(11--->33 1/2)....jnpr(34---> 142)....mail(7--->17)....vian(16---35)....cari(18---> 51 1/4)....bweb(12--->30)....koop(9--->23 5/8)....witc(9--->30 3/16)....juno(13--->24 1/2)....strm(15--->62)......as u can see, mkt. timing, greenspan and luck are just as important as any point system....amazing to think that out of the last 12 ipos at wit there hasnt been one dog despite many of us cancelling and creating a new orifice to many of the recent ipos that have been released from wit....but dont get too excited cause u know as soon as we start indiscrimately buying everything once again the mkt. will tank...who knows, after 60 days most of these could in the red for all i know....lol....well, just a thought....hhmm, that audible crap is looking better by the minute.
