Do you know if your commission will be competitive? US trading has a good footing up there. Can you be competitive?
One remark on Bright's office: it's right downtown. I'd be looking to trade remote so the office location would not bother me. But if I wanted to trade every day from a firm's office, having to commute in and out of downtown Seattle, that'd be a huge dis-incentive. Apart from the hassle, the parking fees would probably be close to the desk fees This said, you guys have a very informative and forthcoming web site, as far as disclosure, procedures, and cost/rates are concerned. That is a very good thing. Elvis
I have been working with Echotrade(albeit slowly!) to open a Seattle office, but haven't found an overwhelming interest in opening an office thus far. The chances are great that any office would be located on the East side. E-mail me for more details. cboemmker@aol.com
