re: Canadian trading. That is true about TD, BOM, CIBC. Once you qualify, you become a priority account. You can call in your trades and get through pretty quick. I believe the other banks have similiar arrangements. Earlier, I was just referring to the regular accounts--not the priority accounts. The true measure of how well they are doing is still how they handle regular trading accounts.

OT - I use both, GreenLine and Disnat and both suck terribly. I have spent hours trying to get a tarde in. Their phones are always busy and their servers are insufficient to handle the current capacity. The problem appears to be the shortsightedness of management to foresee the growth in On-Line trading. They were planning for a 10-15% growth when in fact growth exceeds 300%. Why is it that everyone here saw it coming, yet the ones paid to run these brokerage house were totally off the ball? Incompetence at the top I guess. As I right, I've been waiting for approximately 45 minutes to place an order with Disnat. Yesterday I tried selling a stock while it was trading at $70, unfortunately only managed to access my account over an hour later. By then it had dropped to $62. This is really Bull$$it. I have given up!!!
