Hello,
I've just switched my account from Discover to TDWaterhouse. TDWaterhouse charges $12/trade and in my research appear to get pretty good reviews from their customers. I also talked to someone at Discover and I got the impression from him that Discover is not too concerned about losing investors/traders like us (do our own research). I got the impression that Dean Witter/Morgan Stanley is maybe looking for bigger fish then us. And by the way enjoy your comments on P&F.
Eric

It took about 3 weeks to go from SureTrade to Watley. Watley is $9.95 and I have been happy. Actually MSDW is really screwing its larger customers. New commissions are for 1,000 shares as opposed to 5,000 shares so a 5,000 shares limit order is about $150.00 vs $19.95. Wow, that's over 700% increase and less service!

I'm out of there.
