OT - Can anyone recommend a DECENT discount broker?
With reliable web access? I've been with Waterhouse
for many years and was thrilled when they made good @75
on the 11/30 stop losses, but today was the last straw.

For weeks it has been extremely difficult to trade, today I could not
get through via web, audio response, national 800 number or local office. As a result, I am still holding shares I would have sold at the open. I am livid and not talking about small $$ here.

Sorry to vent here, but any good advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Duff

P.S. Saving $10 on a trade is not worth giving up $10,000 on an execution. Their service had been fine until recently.

Brian, no need to get personal. I've made a lot of money on ONSL and am not nervous, whereas you are selling at a loss and have been a nervous wreck all along. Now you tell me who should stick to treasurys.

jajajaja,
Robbie
