I need to find another broker. Can anyone help me? Harris Direct, where I have my non-trading account, just changed their commission schedule. Their old rate aggregated buys and sells and only charged one fee per 5000 shares bought and sold in a day. The new one charges per order, so if you chase a stock and it takes 3 fills within a dime, you are charged three times. I'm pretty sure Schwab and FIDO have the same rules on multiple orders. I just looked at IB and they are cents per share, but it doesn't look like they have money market funds, and I like keeping my cash in a treasury money market fund. Anyone have any ideas? tia ork

some internal stuff getting mushy ? .... that internal mushy stuff might have to do with "fair value" starting to leak in here ? It would be a wall of worry to go long here , and if higher they go what better shorts . The world isn;t round it's a silicon wafer. After the Bios they managed to kick~start the semis finally a bit, they had to . Not opposed to trading long , but must say that QCOM still looks a little skewed to the sell side here at $38 ...reports the 23rd , going to dog it for a short . What cha think ? INTC getting far too happy here P/M @ ($25.60) for a ho hum report . Where are all the shorties when you need them ? ;-)
