Well said once again Chief As for unfair competition. Something I just posted to the I hate Greenline thread. _____________________________________________________________________ The Vice President of TD capital markets recently saying "If your not invested in the Nasdaq you are missing out on some key technology opportunities" is shooting himself in the foot. Anyone Canadian who does a little reading on the net will quickly find out that they can get a U.S broker account. There are at least a dozen brokers who take on Canadians. I am with DATEK http:\\www.datek.com. They charge $9.99 U.S for 5000 shares of any company. The next 5000 shares costs you an additional $9.99 U.S. Plus they give you tons of free information, have a very fast web site and give you free trades if they do not go through in less than 1 minute. So if you buy 10,000 shares of a $2 stock on the NASDAQ or NYSE through Greenline they charge you $450 Can. for the trade. For the exact same trade Datek costs $30 Can. 15 TIMES THE COST FOR THE EXACT SAME TRADE!!!!! And to make it all worse Greenline does not offer stops on NASDAQ trades. I guess that says it all.
