    need info on prices to start trading

    If you have an account with a firm, contact them and ask them if they have a relationship with TT or CQG and see if they can offer you special pricing. Otherwise, I would contact the companies directly and check pricing. You can get this type of setup with many prop shops for around $2000 -...

    Better Paper: WSJ or IBD?

    IBD is much more of a traders newspaper in my opinion. They seem to have a better pulse of the market, whereas the WSJ is much more of an editorial paper. The WSJ is a great paper and you might just get both, but for strictly trading I would go for IBD. Hope this helps.
