<DIV><FONT face=Arial>It would seem to Day Trade you need a fast AND reliable 
executioner.&nbsp; Most internet brokerages do not fit this bill, including 
DATEK, which is the highly touted brokerage for day trading.&nbsp; I put them in 
a class with Waterhouse.&nbsp; For Position trading, one does not need this 
immediate execution reliability, for the most part, and more brokerages will fit 
this bill.&nbsp; It is more desirable, of course, but, when you are holding for 
days, weeks, if you miss the trade by a point or two it is not significant 
compared to missing a 15 minute trade by a point or two which can mean several 
thousand in the hole.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><BR></DIV>We're back to this silly argument of which is better... position

personality, your<BR>trading style, your risk tolerance, and your expendable

 with expeirience a couple years ago trading the internets, it would have
 been easy to make 100% on their money in a year, very easy!
