Thanks for the info.

I know all the e-traders have been having trouble because of the volume but nonAction Direct has always been a piece of crap. Now it's a joke!

I'm looking around this weekend for a list of top ranked
online brokers. I'll look at Scwab.

I'll probably move most of it to my full service broker anyway. No sense in worrying about a few bucks in a market like this!

Thanks for the info on Schwab. It certainly will make me consider changing.

My only concern is that once the word gets out and people start switching, won't they run into the same problems that all the other discount and online brokers have? They still have to review all trades and are limited by the 90 day training rule.

I placed sell market orders at 6:55 AM and they didn't get filled until 7:50, talk about incompetent discount broker.
