John,

MSDW has the same procedure. I've watched buys being held for over 2 minutes before confirmation. When I called and asked about this, I was told that brokers routinely review orders before they are executed. When I asked what was the reason for that, I was told that they want to make certain there are adequate funds in your account to cover the trade! No joke.

John,

Try Schwab.

I was out @ 170-171 and in again @ 150-151 last week in a 10 min span on 1000+ in the closing minutes. No review. No human intervention. They performed. They treat you like you deserve to be treated.
