I'm intersted to know about this subject too, i couldn't find a list of direct access brokers on internet ?
Is tradestation a direct acess broker ?
I think E*Trade, Schwab, Fidelity are not direct access , and TD ameritrade is Direct access?
You just don't know how to ask A SIMPLE QUESTION.
To make over 100K profit, how much would be your trading capital (Please Include margin if used.) ;) ;) ;)
If i'm not wrong , Thinking for realstic return you need 200K Trading capital to make 50K return, and 400K Trading capital to make 100K (if you don't want to use margin or play options).
That's kind of returns that Hedge funds do. ET Members who Picked first two options on this Poll are msotly...
Your question isn't clear ... I think you should have phrased your question " how much capital you trade with, to make a living. And that's subjective to living style.
If I am somewhere in south east asia, like Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia ... If i make $50K profit from trading, i will live...
E*trade has 3 headquaters , two in US and one in Philipines , Manila City where there process all applications, they must have a trading server there , you can find out by asking their chatline
Well , Did you just said " you are VERY experianced Trader " ??? If your P&L not negative for long time, then many coders would be more than happy to test your Idea for free.

I'm helping open account for relatives with E*Trade ...since schwab wants 25K and fidility don't open account for Non US and TDameritrade for very limited countries. I think their merger makes them even worst
Hi, good day.
I'm just few months to trading again and Currently using IB and TS. It's not specific question but for my general knowledge. What are other adanced Trading plateforms that has a brokerage company behind them.
AFAIK these brokerage are very well known. Not in any order ....
1-IB...
I will pay $10 to IB, even no trade or hold minimum funds to keep my account alive. Their TWS plateform tools alone give you more than $10 value. You need to review your post again.
When choosing a messenger to create a group, better think of something that used globally or universal. Whatsup is universal, while Skype might be popular in US, But it is not even used anymore in many countries.
However you can creat group in both messengers.
* share (using) same tools .... to shorten learning curve :)
I'm fairly new, few months with IB and Tradestation , i am still learning, and happy to help if i can and learn from others, can add me in whatsup or any other messengers ..
It's a great great idea , i'm interested too . It would be nice if there were friends to create whatsup ,skype groups specific to a Broker & Platform features like IB and Tradestation programming language and strategy back-testing
ET forums is huge and universal and catering to everyone's...
I hate Robin hood, even the name itself is a Joke. Can someone please shut down their operation ? They are making mockery of trading business with all these has-been wee kids
No , don't get me wrong. Since i never had account wit E*TRADE, and for the reason i had read some negative reviews on internet about them, so if you read my first post, my concern was geared Toward E*trade executions too .
