WHO DOESN'T SUCK?? That's the relevant question to me. I have Lombard, think they are pretty good. I've had no real execution problems, fairly heavy volume (several hundred trades), last five months. Don't like their margin @ .75 above broker call for their largest amounts. Have heard others have a margin call % at 30% rather than the 35% that Lombard sets (and is pretty much the usual). Lower is of course safer....

How about some contributions along this more producive line than bashing etrade. Point is, who to go to....

Regards, Doug

Alien,

Yes, I had only 20k and the account went to over 390K
Exactly, I have all the confirmations and will post the images on the web shortly to prove it all.

This is a great news story and I have this past week received requests from the media regarding more information on this. Watch this dillema unfold, someday I will get the neccessary help on this, and God knows I need it.
