    Stability and Reliability of Small Retail Brokers

    What about IB? It would be a pretty bad thing if their clearing firm go out of business since lots of people here, including myself, have IB accounts. I take the profits out on a regular basis -anything above 30K- so I am not so worried.

    I Quit

    It's pretty hard to use indicators for intraday. I look at price only when daytrading.

    can you short stocks under $5?

    It depends on your broker. Beware of short squeeze though. It just needs one good news to make it fly, at least temporarily.
