>>>Unless they institute an "all or none" option, they are not unlike any other broker, in that they do not guarantee complete fills. It's the price we have to pay for the features that ARE great, like exposure to the full market through Island, etc.<<< Hmm, Waterhouse would give the free commission. Not a guarantee thing. ISLD exposure to the market isn't really that great anymore, since the new rules were instituted. Waterhouse and all other brokers are doing the same thing now, only they use real mm's (NITE and MASH are Waterhouse's) so you can actually get SOES'd, and the other mms don't trade around you. Yes, I'm new to Datek, but I promise you I'll see if they won't give it up if (when) it happens. BTW, have you ever called and tried? It's no wonder it hasn't happened if you haven't. Barb
