Hi Tom, Sorry to make this board sound like a "yes-men" club, but I too was happy with the way WebBroker held up today. I did get a few notices about not being able to access account info, but trades went through fairly smoothly. Lots of good buys and good byes today...I was able to get in on the upside of several. The panic selling/capitulation was a good sign and something that I was looking for before getting in. Like you said, this increasing volatility is only good news for OLBs. One possible fear is that if we go into a bear market (which we won't) individual investors will be burned and will be less likely to trade. However, this correction has taken the air out of the hype and things should be much more rational going forward. This blow-off to the downside should be constructive for the markets in general and I believe we will see a rally by the time earnings season rolls around in a couple of weeks. Take care, Tom C.

IMO TWE will see mid 30's by next earnings. TWE is obviously experiencing growing pains. This for the TWE investor is not necessarily a bad thing. The key to success is to manage growth in manner as to not loose customers. I think TWE has the right approach and the right management team to achieve this task. TWE has the debt to equity ratio and cash on hand to grow and improve. TWE will and is reinvesting equity into system improvements. This stock should not be held by investors that are not risk tolerant (i.e. not margined heavily). There is very little float compared to others. TWE shares outstanding ratio to float is almost 10 times SCH, NDB, EGRP and double AMTD. This is going to result in volatile changes in price with little volume. If you?re not risk tolerant presently then wait until after the first split. Split 2:1 or better will likely occur if and when the share price can reach mid to late 30?s. Two splits likely within the next 12 months. Splits will help stabilize the price variations. IF you need a comparison look at SCH, EGRP, AMTD study the price volatility and number of splits over the last 24 months. All speculation and my personnel opinion.
