Anyone know how the after-hrs trading will work? Do we need our accounts approved for it?

I also think it's hard to beat E-Trade for handling pennies -- as long as their system is working. Good commission-to-service ratio, especially if you have "Power ETrade" status so you can use their special phone-line to call-in to brokers if the system goes down (MUCH faster service than via their "regular" phone system). NOTE: If you plan to become a NEW E-Trade customer, I'm pretty sure they'll start you off with "complimentary" Power-Etrade status without you needing to "qualify" for it first by meeting their trades-per-quarter minimums. So be sure to ask about that BEFORE signing up -- because they WON'T offer it to you like that after-the-fact. And also ask about any OTHER "Sign-up bonuses" they may be offering as incentives, before you become a member. .. Vagabond
