I am sick and tired of e.schwab not comming down on their commissions.
They get a ton of ST traders paying 29.95 per transactions. I told them last summer that I had better see the price come down soon or I was out of here. It's 1998, resolution time. And transferring my account is on the top of my list.

The funny thing about it is that they would have made more money in commissions if they had lowered the price. ie. more trades because I wouldn't have to factor in $59.90 to the cost of the investment.

David,have you ever tried Fidelity?They don't charge $$ to talk if you have a problem and have always bent over backwards with any problem.If I have any problem connecting they will give the same comm.($14.95/1000) with a live broker.

P.S. They also were impossible to trade with on Oct 19.
