Non-Tech : ABWATLEY CUTS FEES AND COMMISSIONS AGAIN! -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

Judy,

I was really upset when the rep from Watley never answered my
question. I am using Discover, they're slow but I've never had
the nightmarish problems you hear about with some of the others.

Options cost $30.00 each way. Often times my fills have been 1/8
to 1/4 more in my favor, quite surprising. Recently, after showing
a fill at a specific price on the screen, a Rep called me on the
phone to tell me that I actually sold for 1/2 point per option more than what was showing in my portfolio. Man, that was a pleasant surprise. (10 contracts)

I figure I might as well stay where I know what I got. I guess the grass is not always greener. Especially when Watley ignored me.

Anyway, good to talk to you. I will PM you if I come across a
decent broker w/ good option rates. Keep up the good trading.

Rich
