I don't use Etrade, but I'm hoping someone else can answer your questions...
I do have a Scottrade account, and I highly recommend them...
Besides Interactive Brokers, they have the best commissions that I've found...And their accounting page is really easy to download so that you can do your end of the day or end of the week statistics for tax purposes...Not even Fidelity makes it so easy to do this IMO...And they are my second choice for online brokers...
I'll post a FAS chart that shows how my strategy works on today's run into the close of the session...
