    gotta_trade's scalping journal

    Is this normal for you? $800 in commissions!?!? Where are you trading and what are you paying??? What is your average size trade? 2000 shares? 5000??? Maybe you should try and find a "flat rate" prop firm. I think Domestic charges $1 per trade from 100 to 10,000 shares. Or try to cut a...

    Who thinks .05 increments work better ?

    i would definitely like to see them go to nickel spreads. More movement, greater range, and less bullshit around the "number".

    Madison Tradig Group LLC...

    I am currently in this predicament. I was at a PHLX firm. My series 7 lapsed after 2 years (because I was in school). And now I will be joining a firm that is a member of the NASD. So, for this firm, I have to reactivate my 7 by taking the continuing ed, and then take my 55 and 63.

    From what I understand, in the above example you would have to take a "continuing education" exam for your Series 7. And then most NASD trading firms will require you to take the 55 and 63.

    Do you tip?

    OOOHHH yeah! I had one of the best steaks of my life at Morton's Steakhouse. It was insane, and so was the bill. I think I broke a personal record for a 2 person dinner. But it was well worth it. And yes Aphie, of course I tipped. Always do unless the bitch was extremely ignorant and did...

    Madison Tradig Group LLC...

    I think what he means is that is that when you go to trade with this firm, your Series 7 will not go into the CRD bank, and therefore might expire. The PHLX will acknowledge that you have passed the exam, but when you go work elsewhere in the industry, the new firm will not find a record on you...

    gotta_trade's scalping journal

    Hey Gotta, Where do you trade? I assume prop because retail (even with IB) would way too expensive with your style. I have heard that this style (large size scalping of NYSE big caps) is not working very well anymore. Maybe you need to focus harder on adjusting to something new? Good...

    How long before you can be called "consistently profitable" ?

    I know a guy who works midnights at an auto plant and then trades at a prop firm during the day. He's been profitable for 3 years and makes close to 6 figures trading. He says he rarely has any losing days. Yet he will not quit his factory job because he thinks he hasn't proved anything as a...

    What rates are new traders getting out there at prop firms? Is anybody coming out of college and getting $.0075 or the like? Or do all firms pretty much start you at $.01 per share?????
