I hear as long as you stay on cash with Etrade there should be no issues. Once you start using Margin I hear mixed opinions. I plan on only trading one account for the F's only and only using my cash. I will keep all my FLD's and other plays in separate accounts. I would open another account at Etrade to move the FLD's into.
I'm with you. I'm leaving TD Ameritrade for screwing with my trading ability, after the pops. I'd do it now but I don't want to risk being caught in transit when the pop occurs. Plus, it will mean more to them to see 6 figures leaving them than it will 4 figures. If they ask why, I'm going to tell them it's for jacking me around when I tried to buy stock. Since Monk uses ETrade, that's where I'll go.
