Robin, I am quite pleased with the IB. Support is hard to get
too, but it's not needed almost all the time. Shorting is
occasionally problematic too, especially at the reversal (top or
bottom) junctions. I could not TLT short, etc. The trades are
pretty cheap and are executed momentarily: no other broker I've
used can beat their execution times.
If you want to short anything, use Scottrade: they always have
plenty of available stocks. PM me if you need more information.
