Big Dog, I have been using Discover Brokerage Direct, and have been frustrated with the execution time, especially on short sales. First I have to wait for them to get the shares, then I have to wait for the confirmation, etc... I like the layout of their web pages, but the time factor is getting in my way. I am considering moving up to the SOES type of order processing. Yet it sounds like you make a lot of trades and that E*Trade works for you. Is that true, and how do they do on the short sales? Thanks for tossing me a bone with your answer... RS ;)
