If you were with a prop firm, have a 7, then leave and the 7 is inactive, do u pay professional or nonprofessional fees if you trade a retail account?

The last one I sat thru took longer than usual, several customer/broker/family related questions......I've never seen a customer (in this business). You're right, nothing that helps "us" as traders! should be a separate exam and CE altogether.

It is multiple choice and you really can't fail but keep repeating it there untill you pass. In other words it isn't like the exam itself where you had to study. You are given a scenario and then are tested on it. If you don't get it on the first go-round you are tested again. Just don't...

Make a little, lose a little, seize the opportunity when it comes to make alot!

Not sure about volume on an intraday basis....but a move on high volume may indicate followthru. Anyone familiar with the work of Mark Leibovit, the Volume Reversal survey? I used to follow his work and found it interesting.
