You can trade OTC:BB thru the Watley trade desk only. Not any of the ECNs. I don't mess with them though and haven't tried it yet. Watley's set up and instructions are much more detailed (97 pages) compared to Web St. Once you get your windows set up though you can watch a Level II, real time news, a chart & about 12 real time stock quotes all at once. You can also design the screen numerous ways and save them each day to your liking. I've only had the account 1 1/2 weeks but I'm up 25% already in large part because of the super fast fills Island gives you. I feel fortunate because so many daytraders lose alot of $. I made some real stupid mistakes since I began 1 1/2 years ago and am real lucky I didn't lose my shirt. I'm sure all of you have done something dumb you could share with us which would help us not make the same mistake. I'll post my First one later. Bill Martin
