I am with TD Waterhouse which soon becomes TD Ameritrade. I am just like you. I have more than 100 transactions.

As long as you bring up Ameritrade, I may be in the process of switching from Fido to there. How does one get ANO.T onto the watchlist for example? It takes ALIAF but not ANO. Same with dot V stocks as well Any suggestions appreciated Dick

You may need to be an Apex member and with that many trades you should have unlimited transactions. I had to trade my way out of a hole last year and made almost a million bucks worth of trades just for that and GK logged 'em all and cost me not a cent. My accountant liked the reports too but he still charged me the full $500.00 or so. I agree with others that using a good tax firm is worth the modest cost in return for the peace of mind. Not to mention the PITA associated with things like LTD partnerships, etc. A fair flat tax that includes state and local taxes in a transparent system is what I want-then I'll do my own taxes again and happily pay them. I've been where you don't make enough money to pay taxes-I'd rather pay 'em. ken, ending Sat. rant
