Today's median score is not 720. That certainly may have been the case prior to the credit crisis but with credit card companies artificially lowering people's scores by reducing credit limits, canceling cards and then add to it the swelling unemployment, bk's and defaults...

Also the 90% payout stinx and the commission is a bit high AND only 10-1 leverage??? No thanks.

Really like t3live. However, they aren'ta B/D, correct? To me, it's just too much risk right now.

so you really feel JC can pass the new scrutiny by the SEC (just being a "division" of a cbsx firm)? I guess I'm pretty conservative in that the S7 firms seem to be "safer" and less likely to ever get shut down. Tough choice here between JC and Echo.

yes on remote trading. Need to verify on previous post about 10k deposit...I was told 5k.

I've narrowed it down to 2. Echo and JC. Don't like that Echo requires 10k before you get a chance to try them out. Don't like that JC isn't a b/d and that greatly concerns me in the current environment. JC offered 20x, Echo 30x. Same commish at .0035. I don't really want to get the 7 as...

Absolutely agree with this!! Starting a business and being successful (making more than a minimum hourly wage) is bucking the odds anymore. I would venture the fail rate of startup businesses in this country is less than 50% if you give it up to 5 years. I see so many businesses come and go...

luv2tradestocks, Please IM me. I saw where you responded to the post on Kershner in Austin. For some reason that post has disappeared?!? I would love any info you may have on them as it appears you are from TX. Thanks much! Stox

Welcome Back Eric! I am new to your chat room and appreciate your work. I also signed up on epiphany's page for more info. and access but haven't heard anything for past few days. Is anyone "home" in that area?? Thanks for your blogs! Stox

That post was written very late and I had just cruised through almost every thread in this prop section trying to find info. on Kershner. Really surprised there is nothing here! :mad:

Anyone with any experiences here? I traded with Insight Securities back in the SOES days. They were owned by Cornerstone who was gobbled up by this firm. Appears to be "prop". Would like to get some more background here first before I call them. Thanks to all with "insight" into this...

Since you are local--do you know anything about Kershner? My son is at Lackland AFB and I may visit them while stopping in to see my son. Usual questions--reputation? leverage? how much deposit? S7? Would like a bit of background before I talk with them directly from someone in the...
