Robert,

    I don't use Fidelity, but they (Fidelity) are getting greedy.  So, by
complaining I don't think would do any good.  The best thing is to close your
account and move to another brokerage.  That sends a clearer message than
complaining.  The scary thing is if people start to accept this, this could
become the normal way of trading.  This would create a domino effect with other
brokerages, so every trade would be a split trade and a simple commission of
$14.95 could be $50-100 per trade.

Robert, your already spending at least $2500 on commissions, they would rather
see $7500-$10,000 a month on commissions alone.

This is something I'll be watching for with my brokerage. (AB Watley)

Trade Well,
Joe Frabosilio
