    Never tell a broker you trade for a living?

    I do not agree. The exchange feeds and their requirements for the exemption and the IRS do not have the same standard.

    They are very similar but that page was hard to screenshot as it went over two pages.

    How likely will this CC get assigned?

    According to this, the dividend is $0.15. The June 07 27 put closed 0.08 x 0.10 and cost of carry for the 6th to the 7th is very little, so if the stock is here or higher tomorrow and the puts are under $0.10, I would exercise tomorrow if I were long the call and save $0.05.

    He said he trades for a living as a self-employed trader. He never said he trades for others. From NASDAQ:

    Never tell a broker you trade for a living?

    No, but be careful on social media like Linkedin. If you say you are a professional trader, and the NYSE see that in a review of accounts, they will want to take away your exemption.

    Is IB the cheapest broker for larger investors trading frequently?

    Well the post title was “Is IB the cheapest broker for larger investors trading frequently?” That is why I responded with our per trade rate which is less expensive if you add liquidity and send orders over a certain level. We can also match or do better for the most active clients with a lower...

    Is IB the cheapest broker for larger investors trading frequently?

    I'm not going to comment on another sponsor or another business model. I have faith that our target market is well served with choice of third-party software, a large number of routes, choice of per trade or per share pricing, a well-trained support desk and me as their rep with 38 years in the...

    My picture is of Lightspeed Trader. Their set up just takes time to get it to that setup and then save it. Not a big deal.

    Is IB the cheapest broker for larger investors trading frequently?

    Depends on the average order size. IF you do a lot of small lots, per share is better.

    Is IB the cheapest broker for larger investors trading frequently?

    $0.45/1000-no. You have an extra "0". Our clients can start with a promotion or negotiate a rate based on past volume. Happy to talk to anyone directly. We get a lot of X-IB and TD client move over. It is not just about rates. No automated liquidation, a trading desk you can call or email and a...

    Is IB the cheapest broker for larger investors trading frequently?

    You don't get charged per fill- per order. Buy 5000 GDX 22.35 $4.50, even if you get filled in 100 shares lots, as long as you do not cancel/replace to a new price-that is a new order and that would be another $4.50. We offer both-but can't choose on not each trade. You have to choose what...

    Is IB the cheapest broker for larger investors trading frequently?

    I said our per trade rate is better if you trade more than 2250 shares. If you trade more than 1mm shares a month, our rate is $0.0025/share, min $0.25. That matches the blended rate at IB for 1mm shares and our min is lower.

    We can. We can also offer Per Trade rate of $4.50/Trade, max order size of 10,000 shares. If your average order size is more than 2250 shares, that is better than $0.002/share. We can also price active trades at one rate and you do not have to earn that rate each month by starting at a higher...

    Sterling trader pro-open full screen

    Hi excrypto, I'm not 100% sure what you are asking for. Some platforms have a tabbed layout that makes it easy to have everything fill a screen as they have one window or use HTML in a browser. Sterling Trader Pro is built to have the flexibility to move each module around. When I bring up the...
