I just want to thank you again :0 I woke this AM to find quite a few Emails from old and new friends responding to my recent posts, some as far back as 5+ years ago. Then I come to the boards this AM to find basically the same thing (IMHO). I find it interesting that "you" use the word selective :) That was my post and that was my concern at the time as a newbie to MB. It was also after "my reading" some of your first bashings. I did call MB at the same time I posted that, and they explained how and what was happening to me at that time. I believe them. You don't understand why I use MB with only a handful of trades a week ? Let me try to explain it for you. I used to use Fidelity, was trading the OEX, paid about 75 each way, had to use a phone for executions. As the OEX started to move about mid - end ? '94 I started to find it was getting harder and harder to get through to the trading desk. Then I went to Web based, OK so far ? I found it totally annoying to go from page to page, putting in access codes and the like, til it was just as hard to get through to the site at all in high traffic times. Wasn't it great that you could get a commission of 10 - 15 per trade ? Couldn't get online but if you could, hey what a price. Then came MBT and the like. Still don't get it ? Fast execution, reliable service, good all around support, a chance to cut your data feed expense if your so inclined to do some quick daytrading. Hey wait a minute, this is turning into another positive commercial in favor of MBT. I guess it's because I like MBT, I can afford MBT, I think it "ONE" of the best. Do I really need any other reason ? But now wait a minute, you mean to tell me that after 3 positive notes all you could come up with is "I'm a jerk", :) I'll take it !! Mentors? I have alot of mentors, some of the best, they're in books, friends minds, helpful acquaintances, and from what I read on this board after my last post ... from just plain folks who have gathered here to collectively exchange some ideas. Get the point ?! Your opinion is valued, your rantings and bashings .... When you take things to far your infringing on my rights and others to enjoy this forum And thanks again for being so helpful And Ya'll don't forget to thank Scanshift too :) Drop him a line at sales@scanshift.com then cc: to tech@scanshift.com, let him know how greatfull you are I'm done....? hope for awhile, You all have a great weekend and good trading week coming
