Lee I expect to find another broker real soon. Scotia is a bunch of cheapos.. tho a few of the guys I've spoken to there are quite ok. I'm playing such small potatoes it ought to be kibble for my dog; but that has been changing for the last two weeks, with many doubles and a couple of triples today.

"SOunds like when I had a DLJ account that I used." Funny that you should mention that today. Long ago I gave up any thoughts of even trying to call DLJ because of the unbelievably long waits for anyone to answer - if ever. However, today, I did call and was absolutely amazed that once I worked my way through the series of press this number and press that number, etc. the phone was answered immediately! I don't whether it was just a fluke or a real improvement, but it was the fastest I have ever been connected to "help" at any other broker that I use - Fidelity, Web St, CitiCorp and ETrade! Bill
