>>James, it sorta works this way, and it applys to most of the on-line brokers:<< Jan, I gotcha. I feel pretty strong about not having a margin account. My daughter not long ago asked me if I thought she should have a margin account. After I explained the rewards and, told her the risk. She asked me if she got a fed call would I bail her out. I told her the she did all the studying and work and, I paid all her college bills.Now that she's graduated she's on her own but, If she got a fed call and, ends up in jail. I'd come to visit her, but that's all.:-)
