jb, Yes, Mr. Stock is my Broker. Good people. Friendly. Relaxed. I bugged them with all kinds of nit-picky questions BEFORE signing on, because I wanted to be sure I could use Leaps as a Stock Substitute and Write Conventional Calls against them. Very helpful. No pressure. No hype. Ordinary Equity Purchases and Options can be done on-line. Leaps and Spreads MUST be called in at the $19.95+ price. When you call to trade, you go to the "Options Desk". Their primary function is OPTIONS!
