Re: Lowest commission rates...

Hi Dean:

I compared E*Trade, Ameritrade and DBS in search for the service.  DBS charges
$1.76 per contract for option trades with $15.00 minimum.  Compared to this,
Ameritrade was about 2.25 per contract, and E*Trade was even higher.  I have
just started with DBS, and the order execution seems fine on the net.  Their
charge for live broker order is about $25.00, with additional $4 or so for
other charges.

If you go to www.tradepbs.com and click on "Commission Schedule", you will get
this info.

Best Wishes:

Girish Patel, M.D.
