I got lucky. Having recently opened a Datek acct, and using real time quotes between that and my NDB account, I was able to reduce my basis a little on my largest holding on the day of the big fall. I am looking forward to the added flexibility that my Datek account will give me when I move most of my assets to Datek. Stay in the Black! jimS

On tuesday I tried to connect to Schwab via internet no luck, telebroker was down mid to late morning and office phone line were busy. Tried to place a trade at 28.375 end of the day the stock was at 31. I was able to get quotes all day at Datek, yet no cash availble to buy at that point. So I could not try and trade in that account. Overall Datek seems to be better than Schwab on exucutions and speed. Not to metion price.
