ANYBODY, I need your advice!! I am a beginning daytrader - having traded on paper for several months I'd like to start doing some REAL trades. Can someone recommend a broker?? I'm looking at Datek since they are cheap, fast and have unlimited quotes. I cannot yet sign up for the kind of service that AB Whatley, Castle etc. provide because I don't want to pay 300 a month yet, and I don't have the necessary equipment. I need to trade simply through a browser, without downloading any software. Can anybody advise me, PLEASE? I would be very grateful. Thanks! Luke
