Lowell,
you don't have electronic access to your account? You should know by tomorrow, at the latest, what your cash balance is if you did.
Under the guise of money-is-money, you can get Ameritrade to lower their commission. I was all set to pull my accounts and move them to Scottrade. Scottrade had even sent Ameritrade the information on the accounts they were pulling. An Ameritrade rep called me on the phone. When I told him I was leaving because of the commission price, he matched Scottrade's $7, permanently. Bob Mann
