all you gotta do is bitch. if you do a bunch of trades they will let em slide, but if you trade once a year you gotta eat em.........then again in the big scheme of things if your too damn cheap now and worry about 10 bucks, when the ship comes in, you will be wiping your butt with 100's so forget the ten
That's not entirely true. If your order gets filled in more than one piece and all the piece occur in the same trading day then your broker it suppose to treat it as one order. At least that's how Scottrade does it.
Not with etrade or ameritrade... IF an order is filled throughout the same day.. I pay ONE commission.. Least last TIME I CHECKED... if it is over multiple days... then one per day..
