Chris, I usually trade a standard 1 k lot and MBT works great for me. Their rates are pretty competitive, especially if you do over 100 trades a month and up. I like them because their customer service is the best in the business. RickF

Chris, if you trade larger share volume you might want to check around...there are ones that have no limit to the size of the order. If I come across one I'll find you. Can't remember who it is. Shoot

>>I'm in the market for a premier trading tool (i.e, I'm beginning to see that Ameritrade is not for the serious trader) and I hear great things about MB Trader.

Also, most companies have special rules regarding the trading of BB stocks. MB doesn't trade them at all. wily
