My shock and rage at Zecco have subsided. I agree with sl62's cool calm logic and will continue to use Zecco as my one and only broker. Every other broker I've found has onerous requirements. It was inevitable with the popularity of penny trading amongst the masses that Zecco would raise their fees. I admit I'm a cheapskate with a short temper when money is involved.
Screwed Scottrade...I sometime had spent more than $2,000 per month paying them in transaction fees...They charge me an arm and a leg every time I had a trading vol of 50-150 mil. shares...Just recently, they pissed the hell out of me...by placing a restriction on one of the stock with I have a huge position in...and none other brokerages are doing...Have a great weekend~
