Non-Tech : TD Waterhouse Group (TWE) -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Good description, Webdrone, of the strengths and limitations of WebBroker. Waterhouse' discouragement of trading in penny stocks was likely their conscious decision to avoid the scams, promoters, outrageous spreads, and liquidity problems that abound among the pennies. However, I am looking forward to the planned (I think) consolidation of Waterhouse and Greenline accounts, and the (I hope) trading of Canadian shares over WebBroker. Many good gas and oil stocks for example trade only on Toronto or Alberta exchanges.

Hopefully the moneys collected in the IPO will begin showing up in services to support quick trades. The proposals were to speed regular trading and to enhance the day trader tools and break the price on penny or e-trade commissions by better technology. I am still at a loss why TWE isn't on the same footing as EGRP and AMTD. Perhaps it all relates to this being a Canadian base. Clearly TWE isn't moving up and down with the same volatility as the others. I do hope you will see IPO money increasing your opinion of TWE in your trading.
