Commissions are % only. Probably work out a bit more expensive than E*Trade on this, but if I get fast fills - and if I have an option of phoning and getting a broker immediately rather than waiting and waiting - it will easily pay for itself. Just in lost $$$ on trades I waited on this past four or five trading days I could pay a whole bunch of months of higher commissions. Sigh. It's just that it can take as long to get to a broker on E*Trade as to wait for the order to go through the normal Web channel, so I don't even bother.
