Thanks D Parker for your advice. One thing I know for sure is that Consors Discount Broker (www.consors.de) the 3rd largest online discount broker in Germany and the first in this business here in our country is doing all their US trades through Webstreet. That should be in the neighborhood of at least 20.000 new customers for Webstreet in only a few weeks. That is what got me interested in Webstreet. I just received an e-mail from them also telling me that they are privately held (see below). By the way I got my MBA degree from Eastern Illinois but never went to Deerfield and I guess I did not miss a lot besides shady Joe Fox........

Thanks for writing.

We are privately-held, but appreciate your interest.

Regards,
Web Street Customer Service

Didn't Barron's just recently rate Web Street the #4 online firm overall? Obviously they have a much different opinion of things than you do! Best of luck wherever you trade.
