paul re:"wsa" no problems since opening the account, i very rarely call them, execute all option orders on line, most times they get better then my limit. i've noticed at times swift execution on large blocks (100+ contracts) at my limit, without the transaction showing in the composite daily totals. i've sold higher then the listed high...not sure how they are handing the position off. they will rebate e-signal service on a monthly basis if you are an active trader, in today's ibd they are offering a rebate on a compaq deskpro ap250 workstation with a new account. in fact after the initial rebate, they will credit you $150 month to pay for the workstation, if you do 450mo equity or 1200mo option commissions. give them a call 1-800-925-5781 and ask for all available special offers. i had a seven figure account with morgan stanley dean witter, one day they decided i couldn't have any more then 100 put contracts open at a time, nothing to do with exposure, just an arbitrary number....wsa i can open as many contracts as i like(currently 350 short put contracts open/2.77m exposure) as long as margin capacity not exceeded... let me know how you make out...good luck, ed a.
