Tell you one thing. Say what you will about features and visuals but Fido would never do this. They don’t route for cash, they answer the phone and money moves when you ask it to.

This is a disaster trying to get assistance. They gave me an erroneous option assignment and they’re also taking hours to send acknowledge and send a wire out. What the hell? side note was considering opening portfolio margin there. Rethinking that big time.

If this thread really turns into a year long guided effort / tutelage, I will fund a real account above pattern day trader limits and post updates. I was kind of in the process of doing so anyway but this feels like a sign. The only thing that’s been giving me pause was feeling like it needed to...
