Are you aware that most brokers don't charge any commission anymore on stocks trading on nyse, nasdaq ? I get charged 4.45 for trades on OTC from Etrade, but to tell you the truth, I rarely trade them anymore. It is so much cheaper to watch the scans for a low big board stock and trade it for free than trading otc's. One thing that makes it better is you can put an order in to buy and if you get a half fill, you can change the price multiple times without having to worry about multiple commissions. Changes up the strategy. I only know what I pay from Etrade on otc's and I think that price was negotiated a long time ago.

Stay away from TDA then, they still charge $7.50 on pennies but big boards are gratis.
Cintrix is right in that most don't so check first.
