It's better than Schwab. SCHWAB sucks big time. If they cannot handle the volume, they simply disable online trading for that stock. And you call them to place a tele-order and it takes you 15 minutes to get thru. SCHWAB isn't worth $30/trade. If you pay high, you expect a respectable service.

Can someone suggest an alternative? Is anyone here happy with his/her broker? Did all brokerages disable online trading for BAMM?

Thanks in advance.

I put in a market order (it was obvious this was not a day for limit orders) at 6:40 a.m. when the stock was 45. Half filled within two minutes, but at 41 (wow when they fall they fall) and the rest about two minutes later and still at 41.
