I admit that I haven't tried to trade odd lots on Scottrade. When I watch the individual trades for my "watch list," though, all I see traded are multiples of 100 shares. Maybe that's not the whole story -- but that's why I said what I said. Thanks in any case for your input! Hi Suresh, thanks for your comment!

I've purchased 1 share of Berkshire Hathaway (B share) at Brown and Co. for a commission of $5. I've also purchased odd lots of other shares at TD Waterhouse and Scottrade.
