Chuck, assume you're referring to JBOH... Site was up yesterday....maybe down for routine maintenance or improvements. One of my criticisms of JBOH is that their website really needs to be redesigned to be more attractive. As silly as that sounds, graphic design and layout of a site is very important. ztect

Just logged back onto JBOH site...GREAT NEWS...Updated site with less expensive trades... Just checked trading demo myself and it didn't work. Trades were $13...now they are $10.... Read the fine print regarding what a "ten" dollar trade actually allows you to do. $10 for market order of 3,000 shares or less. Add $5 for Limit or stop order. No stop orders on Nasdaq trades. And Percent fee or per share fee for shares in excess of 3,000. Comparable to Ameritrade in terms of actual execution costs. Way better than Fidelity. Will have to go back and do more DD regarding what other types of services JBOH offers beyond your typical deep discounter. Plus also checking margin terms and rates IMO not as good as Web Street. Still JBOH stock price versus other in its sector that trade online is very very CHEAP..... Value and turn around opportunity z
