Slow as hell, but this slowness seems to date from my being bumped back from being a PowerTrader to one of the paisanos. If ETrade is offering a few select customers a DSL line, then those super Platinum guys must be getting better access otherwise there'd be no point to a fast line. Mind you, I think ETrade is being smart here. If you're only trading once or twice a week and still taking advantage of other goodies that E has to offer, then you cannot expect lightning service. Clearly there's going to be more and more distinction between the peasants and the high-rollers at E*Trade, and that should be to the advantage of EGRP. I find I'm getting back into trading again. In and out a bit. Perhaps I am typical of a movement back to the trading desk. Opinion?
