I never have been known to beat around the bush but here is why I am getting a GOOD live broker for OTCBB stocks: 1. Poor/no execution on OTCBB stocks... I had several limit orders in for TALL this morning at .40 (Offer was .33, .37 then .40 after the open)... I got none of them filled... NONE OF THEM. Had limit sells in for ADGI and stock went up thru the limit and then back back down TWICE and no fills. Ordered 2000 shares of CHRM and got 500 and the offer never moved. 2. No customer service... when the phones aren't busy, the people that do finally pick up the phone have no clue what is going on. Mr. Hertz sidesteps all these issues in the chat sessions he does. 3. I will keep a trading acct at myTrack for NASDAQ stocks... I have no complain with using ISLD to trade through. Tom

"We have some good news.".....message from MyTrack: We have placed into production a direct line connection to Herzog. This should eliminate the sporadic problems we had with the previous connection to Herzog via ADP. The benefits should be: 1. faster turn around time 2. much faster order cancel time. We will be routing NASD orders via this line to Herzog starting today. If all works well, we will move the routing of OTC BB to herzog to this connection later today. (options and NYSE will still go via ADP) *Now after months of waiting, we can all finally *TRADE LIKE THE PRO'S**** LOL! ----->good going MyTrack, hope this is not another snafu to be lived thru. Now if you could give us realtime constant access to acct positions acct summaries, and work on the freezing up of the order screen on fast moving isues all would be well. ;-) 2MAR$
