    Any other $1 <100 shares brokers besides IB?

    You don't make more than $30 in trades for 1 month? :confused: I wouldn't be able to make any real money without putting on some trades... P.S. I think you can go to the market subscription in the Account Management and remove the U.S. Equities market subscription.

    my target is 5% per trade - is this realistic

    That is not unrealistic. The real question is how much are you risking per trade to make that 5% trade. Good Luck!

    I remember a thread like this years ago here on ET. One of the solutions was to hire a fat woman to sit on your hands.

    Question regarding SEC Fees

    I have a friend who trades at a prop firm and he has a whole bunch of sec fees on his daily statements. I trade at IB and I don't see those sec fees on my statement. My question is if he has to pay sec fees because he's at a prop firm, or is it because he trades listed and i trade nasdaq, or...

    Possible Etrade Fraud

    If you don't mind me asking. How can someone take 4k out of someone else's account without being caught? If they wire it, it can be traced. If they send a check and it's deposited, it can be traced. I'm sure the brokerages don't send cash.

    How to be a good VENDOR on ET

    It would be nice if Brandon would get his trading record audited but it is not necessary since he's not trying to start a hedge fund. I have no doubt that Brandon is making money trading from his posts. I find his posts and videos helpful most of the time. I even made money from one of...

    Alexander Elder

    I found his first book Trading for a Living useful. Good for new traders. I found his second book Come to my Trading room useless. His examples at the end of the second book didn't even follow his triple screen method. It was a clear downtrend on a bigger timeframe and he was just bottom...

    GM humongus Call buys

    I notice people posting lame questions/comments and getting answers that correspond in the same line. You sound like one of those people who buy a stock and try to hype it like on Yahoo message boards. I hope you lost money on GMs gap down today.

    Quadriga Superfund - Managed Futures

    I agree about the poor performance. How can Quadriga be down this month currently when there is so much trending this month? I think more markets are trending then consolidating currently.

    Quadriga Superfund - Managed Futures

    It's amazing some people don't realize there are dates on each post. So when someone mentions "today", you would think it's the day of the post and not the day you are reading the post.

    There was a really funny joke I thought I read here in this thread but I can't find it anymore. I tried the search feature. Maybe one of you who remembers it can point me to the page. It was about a boy who spilled flour on himself and said to his dad, look i'm a white boy. his dad sends...

    Quadriga Superfund - Managed Futures

    Most Hedge Funds change a 20% new high incentive fee. Quadriga changes a 25% new high incentive fee. 5% makes a big difference but they can do that if they are still able to make comparable gains each year. There was a small article on Quadriga and big article on how Hedge Funds are...
