Be very careful, Steve...
You may want to read my post #20 on this thread. An execution may happen fairly quickly, but I will tell you for a fact that a fill confirmation may take hours. Yes, hours - I am not exaggerating. Definitely, positively, absolutely NOT the 6-10 seconds they advertise in their full page Barron's ad.

As Mr. John Putnam at Web Street Securities told me when I complained about my fill notifications coming hours after execution:
"We have up to 48 hours to notify you. It's not our problem."

Since posting my story on several threads, I have been deluged with private mail describing very similar stories.

As I said before,
STAY FAR AWAY FROM WEB STREET SECURITIES!!
