Swami Actually I'm not worried about cost that much , more concerned about quickness of executions of trades. I don't mind paying a bit more for a broker who can deliver fast trades. Etrade this week was taking at times, six to eight minutes to show bids or asks on the market depths. Bank of Montreal could put you to sleep waiting for the bids or asks to show up. The only one, that worked not too badly this week, was Canada Trust, and I'm sure Greenline will be able to screw that up soon enough. Now I know it will be argued, that a representative has to view each trade first , but all the accounts I use are setup with a investor risk tolerance of 100 % short term high risk trading . So there certainly shouldn't be too much to scrutinize. I don't think expecting a trade to go through in less than a minute is asking too much in this era of high technology.

Sorry Swami, your information is not quite correct. I just checked all my trades so far this month, and all my trades for a 1000 or less are charged 30.00. That is only for PCQuote customers. If you trade using their WEB trading the 70.00 probably applies. WB
