Chip, I use TD Greenline up in Canada ... probably same system. Worked OK yesterday, was down for a while this AM. Fills are within a few minutes even today, when it is working. When it was down, I had to listen to 10-15 minutes of clasical music before I got a live broker. Webbroker is a java based interface and annoyingly slow. John

>> Did anyones trading systems (not you Pros) work correctly these >> last two days...? Yesterday I put in a sell-order on Dell & Spaz in the "coffee-break". They were confirmed 15 minutes later. It is a phone-system. Coding by pushing the numbers. The bad part for you is that I live in Holland. It is a little bit surprising for me to see that it is so easy for me at the other side of the ocean. BTW My system also works perfect when I places orders at the Dutch Stock Exchange, no matter how busy it is. For what it is worth. Paul

Chip, I do business with Merrill Lynch and had no problems. I got immediate access to my broker or assistant and immediate conformation of my order fills while I stayed on the telephone with the person that was placing the order. BTW, commissions are negotaible at Merrill. Joan
