look into mbtrading, the minimum requirement I believe is $2k. The commission is decent .01 a share for first 500 shares than .005 after. They also offer futures.

prime example of the huge ego on ET.

does any one have experience with both lightspeed and interactive broker? Is there a difference in execution speed if any? And which one do you prefer over the other? Thanks in advance

Why not? Why risk money when you can actually practice and know if this is the right profession you should be in. The op has just read about trading, he has no real time experience with it. As for 2 years of simulation ya maybe that is over doing it, but at least 6 months of sim trading is...

just basically named exactly all I use

nice way to spam, I can show you 10 other sites that says the total opposite. Than again why base your decisions on others.

my advice is also, do not sell your houses! as of late people are bidding up houses so quickly that its always above asking price. Here is what you should do though, rent them out, have passive income coming in and run a simulated trading account for at least 1-2 years and see how well you...

agreed. The last few days I was killing in the market. Today on the other hand it seems like all my set ups went in the wrong direction.

I think this is pretty harsh. Tell me which trader who first started trading was 100% successful. Any honest successful trader will tell you that they lost a big chunk or maybe even blew up their account when they first started. What separates the profitable traders from the wannabes is the...

agreed

its not gonna happen, sorry. You need some serious compounding to reach $1 mill. If it was $100k to $1mill within 360 days than it would be more believable, even than, that would be a far stretch for for the professionals out there that are consistent.

Have work all day tomorrow so I wont get to trade :( but here is my results for the week. I've noticed that I have made a ton of Noobish mistakes, but hopefully after a couple months of experience I can sharpen my skills in interpreting the direction of the stock and jumping on it as soon as it...
