Charger, Andrew also seems to be very price sensitive! He is concerned with commish that is $.05 different LOL

Steve: Or anyone else out there: Where can I daytrade OTC:BB under $19.95 a trade with FAST execution and minimum deposit of $5K ?
I haven't found any place that matches that criteria.
Lot of people using e-trade but it's to pricey at $20.

I still own 12 of those stocks and I didn't daytrade a single one. In fact I held each of the sold ones from 2 years to 2 days with the average (my guess) being around one week. I still like some of the ones I sold.

Yes, I still would like to daytrade because I feel I'd do much better than buy and hold. My approach recently is to buy momentum picks for a couple of days or more until they look like their running out of steam. I notice that daytraders stand to get more out of them than me.
Example: I alerted the TM cafe thread to IRSN around $2.5 the sameday it went to $4.5 I'm still holding the dang stock and hoping it will go back up. I couldn't sell that day because my online broker requires cash in the account from the previous business day to cover (even cover a sale). I pull my hair out with these stocks. I want to daytrade but I really don't have the big bucks to afford those heavy duty commissions. Maybe if I keep picking these fast movers I'll be able to get to that point, and I'll be able to daytrade my picks like you, GB, Jimbo and others.

BTW I'm going to be holding MIDL a long time. Doesn't look like the market is going to help us any today.
