I totally agree on Fidelity: the service is superb, and the commissions are very low for the fine service we receive. They always negotiate with the customer if something seems to have been badly handled. Their executions are quick, and if possible they tell you immediately, either on line or phone (During Bamm's nonsense they couldnt confirm, they had to just execute the trades because the volume was tremendous, I spoke to a trader after the market closed about it.)

<Fidelity> ditto from me as well. 'NYSE trades often get "price improvements", where I get the buy price at the bid!!! I don't know how they do it but every time I get the order confirmation with one, I shake my head!!! I have noticed it too,I think if the buy order is for a NYSE listed stock they shop for the best price on behalf of the customer even on market orders by going outside NYSE like other regional exchanges if the stock is listed there.Isn't that something!!! I have never used anybody else and don't intend to.
