Gerld; I can't even get real time quotes on BB OTC stocks on waterhouse , I have the impression they don't handle them at all via e-trade. Jim

I've traded OTC:BB stocks via webbroker at the normal $12 commission. Not sure who you talked to but sounds like something is mixed up. How many shares did you trade? Remember that the $12 flat fee is good only for orders up to 5000 shares.

Waterhouse OTC-BB commissions I have also been using Waterhouse Webbroker for some time and I have been satisfied with their service overall. However, I only trade the OTC-BB stocks and I have had continuous problems with the commissions that they charge me. Out of about every 10 trades 8 of these will be at least $45 or more per trade. For someone such as myself that is a pretty active trader this is becoming very annoying FAST. I am getting tired of having to call constantly and get this corrected. Also I would prefer to be able to enter my orders in decimals, does anyone know of a good online company where you can enter your orders in decimals instead of fractions as this would be the preferred way for me to be able to enter orders? Thanks, Kent B.
