The alpha project that the big banks are creating to rival the TSX was long due and should definitely reduce trading commissions for retail and institutional investors.

FrugalTrader, the link to my blog is very much appreciated! :) I was dancing on my chair.
Wolf, the banks are not known to pass along the savings to their customers. Take trading fees for example. QuesTrade does it for $5, and Interactive Brokers for $1, but banks still charge $29 even though they have the economic of scale. I’m an existing TSX Group shareholder, so maybe I’m biased.
