I have an account with GreenLine, didn't use it over the last two months. Did they improve? Last time I had money in that account, InvestorLine was better. Does anyone have an account with an online US broker (for US stocks)? Daytrading, in its true definition, is a pain in Canada. I guess I'll have to stay away from the Pepto-Bismol stock (like BII) and concentrate on stock that one can hold over days. IdiotJed

Re Greenline - I do pretty much as you do. Micromax is fast & not cumbersome like Webbroker(a real disappointment & I would consider useless for day-trading). I don't find Telemax very difficult & use it when away from the computer. Have to say this for Greenline, we do have several options & not sure that others such as E-trade, are equal to that or dependable if the market goes crazy. Webbroker will have to be much improved before I will find it of much use but it sure would be nice to be able to stay on the web. That second phone line may be forced upon me & our friends will be happy when they attempt to call, wonder if I could get them to contribute to the phone bill? tide
