| How about putting something about where to track the prices your stocks are trading at so you know what the prices are when your order goes through. So it will be easier to track how much money you have left to use. |

| I'm sorry, but this suggestion doesn't make sense to me. When your order goes through, you know how much money is left because your cash account is updated at that time. If you're suggestion a real-time stock ticker, I don't see that happening for a variety of reasons. |

| the only thing that i wish would happen is when you buy a stock i wish they would automatically subtract that amount out of your e$ so you know exactly how much you are now dealing with. |

I understand what you are saying.... and get fustrated with this a little bit myself. You have to understand that the actual price is not known when you place the order. The quote is taken 20 mins later in which time the price could have changed.
