Kasia8, OptionsXpress

I asked for the commission rate I posted and they gave it to me. If anyone opens an account there on my recommendation you can use my name and they would surely give you the same deal.

I asked them to meet the rate of TDW in that case, (another broker of mine for their Trade Central and 777 account rates, which I had), and in the case of the equities commissions OX agreed. I suppose they figured if I was getting a good rate elsewhere I'd be worth it. Little did they know I'd be bringing a ton of BCIT shares into their little sweet nice innocent brokerage house.

I asked for some other breaks and got many. I just asked politely and didn't throw a fit when i didn't get what I wanted.

I've had an account there a relatively short time but they've been wonderful to me. Really wonderful. I can recommend them highly, but frankly if anyone is a troublemaker, I'd rather you didn't go there and use my name. They are good-natured people and I want them to stay that way. lol!

This is NO Ameritrade or Scottrade! They don't even have correct quotes on pink sheet stocks (they have nothing for the Pinks!) and I might be the first person ever to buy them there. On the other hand they have fabulous tools and features and will status orders for you with a mouse click, even on the pinks. They are worth exploring. Obviously options are their strength. And you can do the fanciest stuff with options there, but a lot of their features are useful for equities as well.

I especially appreciate them after these two days with Ameritrade.

I think Ameritrade's behavior caused panic in the marketplace and caused the drop in the stock price. We should string them up.
