Your so right Swami about the auto route being down, I use the manual. Are you still using PCQuote/Schwab or do you use the WEB based, never tried it or are you using the phone? Maybe you can expand on that for some of the others. Man would I love that if PCQuotes reduced their prices!!!! ;o) NOT !! ;o) I cant remember when a company told their customers OH! by the way we will reduce our fees and make less money ;o) Geeezz I just added up my commissions for the month so far and they are just over $5,000 bucks, and that is gonna only get larger as my years progress. I just heard the CEO for TD Waterhouse the other day saying that they are gonna be spending about $150 apiece to attract new customers that spend on avg. $500.00 per year. I guess they are trying to sign up 1,000,000 more accounts this year. Now you would think that they would look at trying to attract a high use/commission generator and implement a system to accomodate more customers like myself and others on this thread. I would say that their margins would be higher on customers like most of us because of our volume, less manpower and technologies to service us.
