experiences with Interactive Brokers has been outstanding. The price for
options is $1.90 per contract (no mininum). Equities are $.01 or $1 per
100 (minimum $1). So the price is good if you are doing smaller
positions, and comparable if you are doing 1000 shares or 10 options
contracts. Orders go direct to the exchange or pit, not through a
broker. The software is somewhat dated compared to many of the GUI
applications but works reliably and quickly. I haven't been successful
with stop orders; this may be a problem if you are not in or "near"
the market while your positions are open. </span></font><font color=black><span

stop orders and will be away from my positions for a while. </span></font><font

I'm new tothe list and have been intruiged by your Diamantiferous posts.
Could you explain how you obtain your signals? Or could someone direct me
to where I can find the previous post mentioned below that offers an
explanation. How accurate have they been, if I may ask?
Thanks
