    Will this hurt my credit report?

    For the most part, no. (May always be an exception to the rule - there really never is an absolute.) Utility payments are not reported on your credit scores, only when you don't pay (severe outstanding balances). I have had experiences with both ConEd in NYC and PSEG in NJ (2 large utility...

    Will this hurt my credit report?

    Without more detail that is an answer that can't be made. Is it a magazine subscription or health club membership or phone bill or utility or cell phone etc? Payments affect different bills differently.

    Trader w/ a felony coviction

    CFTC is kinda weird. If you have ever read the Commodity Act, it says that you can be denied membership if you have been convicted of a felony within 10 yrs of your application for membership. The next section goes on to say if it has been greater than 10 yrs since you have been convicted of a...

    Trader w/ a felony coviction

    I'm not saying to actually trade prop, but to use their resources to get the license. You're behind the 8 ball and you have to work harder than most to get what you need. Just consider it a necessary step (evil) to get to where you have to go. GL

    Trader w/ a felony coviction

    If from what you say it would not be a problem from FINRA's perspective but rather getting a firm to sponsor you, I would think that you could get sponsorship through a prop shop. Just apply for a position and explain your circumstances (w/o going into your intention to get licensed so you can...

    If the conviction was WITHIN 10 years, you will need more than a firm willing to sponsor you as you can be barred from membership when you submit your U-4 even if a firm is willing to sponsor you. What you really need is a good lawyer who understands securities regulations to assess your...

    Your Fav Led Zep song

    "Ten Years Gone" from Graffiti. It has that classic layered guitar sound that became the Page's signature, commonly referred to as a Guitar Army. How many pretenders have tried to mimic this revered, albeit a little sloppy, master. BTW, did you guys see all the Rock n Roll royalty go to...

    Never Trade With Oanda If You Want To Trade Seriously

    For the record, the demo platform experiences a higher disconnect rate than the live platform. For starters, 2 different groups of servers - the demo does not have the resources that the live platform would. Also, the demo platform is where they make their changes/experiments to the platform...

    Never Trade With Oanda If You Want To Trade Seriously

    I thought accusations of being a shill/paid shill here on ET was reserved strictly for the IB crowd? What? They have Oanda shills too?

    In hindsight, yes. In searching for some trading space when first started, I was being quoted amts up to 3x what they were asking. (about 1-1.5/mth) I am sure you have seen the website so you have an idea of the space - typical NYC loft: long rectangular full floor. If you want Ray's...
