Bob- When I was with Proactive they treated me right, and if I get back into futures it will be with them again. http://proactivefutures.com/index.html Send a PM to Truff, he works for them and is a member here. Don-

Kson- You've been given some good advice, now your job is to take it. Make sure you use a hard stop loss, not a mental one. Mental stops work for some long time traders, but new traders should use hard stops. I don't know who said it, but this is so true- "Most people lose big because...

I would look into Proactive Futures. They offer several different platforms, good margins, competitive commission structure, and their CS is very good, even during market hours, when it's the most important time to be able to reach them. Ask for David, he'll answer all your questions. They clear...

Here is a thread talking about MB Trading, maybe they would work for you, as they seem to have excellent customer service. http://elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?threadid=62252 Here is their direct link- http://www.mbtrading.com Don-

I think he just means he's upset that he has paid more than he should have, that's all. But, yeah, you're right that he probably shouldn't be fuming at Scottrade.

Yeah, I probably should.....I'll put it on my to do list for this year.

If you click on the Brokers link at the top of the page, and look at the list of brokers down the left side of the page, you can see that Proactive Futures is not even listed. Why is that? I'm guessing it's because they don't advertise on ET. They offer good service, good pricing, good platform...

Yeah, I've noticed that before with other things as well. For instance, Proactive Futures is top-notch IMO, but they are not listed at all. I think it has a lot to do with who advertises here on ET. Don-

You know nothing about execution, but you've been paper trading for 1.5 years? Huh? Open a demo account somewhere, get your feet wet there first. Good luck to you- Don-

I can answer that one, let me put it this way....he's been having a lot of bad days lately. Don-

Anyone jumping on the HSA bandwagon? It actually looks like a good deal to me. Basically, you just buy a high deductible health care plan, and you can invest up to your deductible every year. And it's tax deductible and it grows tax free. Lots of choices about what you can invest in...

Got this from consumeraffairs.com -- Specifically, where most credit card issuers previously required customers to pay off 2% of their outstanding balances each month, most will now require customers to pay all monthly interest and fees, plus 1% of the outstanding balance. What does...

Rocky- Thanks for all this, but I was just trying to point out that someone COULD make money trading FX using one of these bucket shops, that's all.

I think several things are at work here as to why people repost with similar questions. 1) They don't know how to use the search tool and/or how to search through the results that do show up. I know that was hard for me at first. 2) They want to actually have a conversation with someone as...

I think he's saying that he makes $4k per month and lives on that amount-

Anybody want to buy my "new" Toyota? LOL

TOS has great CS, that's for sure. I've been trying to get them to get set up to handle HSA accounts. I see that Optionsxpress is now able to, so TOS won't be far behind, I'm guessing.

This doesn't have to do with my trading, but since it is part of my overall money picture, I thought I'd ask this here. My employer is now offering Health Savings Accounts as an alternative to our traditional health insurance. What I'm looking for are ideas about where to grow my money...

What percentage does she allocate per trade? Thanks Don-
