My experience with TD Bank GreenLine which offers "WebBroker" online has been quite negative. The pages constantly time-out before getting connected. The java programming is poor so that trying to bookmark any of the pages fails since the Java scripts are expecting some information or process which requires walking through the entry/logon/selection/trade pages (and this process times out due to overloads, or bad design, or ...). I tried for 3 hours to do a trade before the expected downturns of the Russian and Clinton situations last week and never did succeed at placing the bid on-line. I too await comments and experiences of usefull on-line trading in the Ottawa region.
