So true, Alex. I have not had any of the problems these people bitch about. I wonder if it has anything to do with location. I'm in Texas. Has anyone in Texas had problems? I haven't.

count me as one of the people that likes etrade. have been with them over a year and made hundreds of trades. had one foulup and they made it right. i can count on them getting the best price on a market order and filling limit orders out of the ask almost routinely. they definitely deliver. place a market order and go on with your business because when you press the button you know the order is done. i use discover as a refernce and will switch this over to etrade. they are not as timely in executing orders and it takes minutes to find out the status of an order. not exactly what one wants. and no my computer does not lock up when i log on to etrade and i am in arkansas which does not rank very high on the internet service ladder. so enough of the criticism and let's talk about what the stock is going to do. good trading amigo.

Alex, You are truly one of the lucky ones. You don't have to read very far into this thread to realize that. I sincerely hope that your luck continues, but, when you start seeing trades that you didn't make suddenly appear in your portfolio; and buys and sells that you saw go by on real-time quote screens reversed--don't say we didn't try to warn you. They don't really give a damn about the customer--believe me--I and many others have learned this the hard way with ETrade. Thank you for using ETrade. Luckyron
