>I think I'd rather have 1 platinum and 1 non platinum.. only because if there are so many platinum accts asking for IPOs and very few regular accounts asking.. then i might have a better shot in the regular account ... they allocate more shares for platinum A regular account should never have a better chance than a platinum, because the way platinum is supposed to work is that it has a shot at the pool of shares reserved for platinum, but if it doesn't get it then, it has another shot along with the non-platinum for the pool of shares reserved for non-platinum. One good thing about all linked accounts getting the platinum is that all accounts would benefit from the commissions rebate starting with the 30th trade in the quarter.
