Sandi, I believe most of the people are using online services from different companies. If you review some of the posts from last weekend you'll find a discussion on this topic. Kevin

Sandie, Sorry I didn't properly welcome you to the thread, no excuses, I was preoccupied with trading at the time. Answer about on-line trading is pretty varied. I use Waterhouse. They are OK. I'm not much of a hype for them. They get the job done. $12.00 a trade up to 5K shares on line, as advertised in their commercials. Sometimes hard to get thru to but always available by phone for on-line prices. Usually hardest on real busy mornings but seem to settle down after trading gets going. They have good record keeping and never a problem with billing or accounting. Some online companies are cheaper, some more expensive. I had my account with them long before online became available so I just stuck with them. The services they offer for members is only fair. Research reports from Zacks are hit and miss on actually being available. Rarely do they have an up-to-date ZACKS report available, usually they are serveral months old. This is very disappointing. S&P reports are usually available if the stock your interested in is covered by S&P analysts. That excludes most penny stocks which is not a problem for me because I seldom trade in them unless I know something about the company. Anyone else care to respond to this inquiry please feel free. Good luck and good trading. Kevin
