Currently using Lombard also....good execution and a lot cheaper than other services.....Great executions....just about all shorts I have gotten (except AMZN)..... I am happy and will stay with lombard.....I added up my commissions with HORROR....spent way too much for too little a gain in my opinion...don't get me wrong, I made over 100% (a few VERY good trades and excellent timing with a few stocks that I know very well....) but the $$$ amounts for commissions were quite horrible.....If I hear about Suretrade people being very happy I will look at them closer.....What is the cost for a limit order at Suretrade??? Never mind, I'll go find out... My new years resolution was to not make any stupid quick decisions so I could avoid the downside errors I made last year...So far, this year, I am already up 14%.......MRVC took me to 25.5 where I sold a good chunk that I got at 21 7/8 the week before new year......I take big positions in what I feel is correct.....Currently BROC feels good and AVNT short feels even better.....(I still am over 1/2 cash though)...I may short more AVNT... Take care Dan Ross
