DISCOVER BROKERAGE is horrible in case you were thinking of joining them. See thread "gizzard" messages 3497 and 3506. I tried to sell my 400 shares of Oracle. I spent over an hour and a half on their website but could not implement the transaction. I called their traders and by that time the stock was over a $1.5 down so I did not want to sell. However, they instead bought me 400 share of Oracle at $29 1/16 which is very close to my selling price. I called them and they said they were going to review the tape but they never got back to me. I lost $1400 because of this. This is only one of the problems I have had with them. I have never almost been able to execute any trade on their website. Their people don't do their jobs and when they do then watch out!! It could cost you many thousands of dollars!! Christopher
