This is a very simplified response. There are about 255 trading days in a year-I’m sure that is wrong, but close. The Square root of 255 is just under 16. An implied volatility of 16 is pricing in about a 1% move on average per day.

nooby_mcnoob-Most clearing firms set up three accounts in the background for a margin account. Type1-CASH, Type 2-Margin, Type 3-short stock. In type 2, they place all cash, long stock, long options, and short options. As a general rule, as long as that account debit balance does not exceed your...

What I would find more interesting, as this is a trading forum, not long term investing, is which is a better trading vehicle for Intraday and swing trades? I would think it would be best to watch both growth stocks and the old guard for momentum and set ups and not stick to one.

Year over year and expected growth of sales and earnings. An investor pays a multiple based on expected future earnings not past. High growth companies generally attract higher multiples.

ronnym789, I just read this post from last month, "I do have a steady source of income from my military service and on top of that, my wife works. I'm in a position to consider trading part-time even though I don't have a large amount of capital to work with." I'd like to help you if I can, but...

I guess I did not finish my thought. Here, if your family speaks English at home, a third language would not be typical. I would say it is rare. If you speak a foreign language at home e.g. Spanish, Korean, Chinese etc., it would not be typical to then take that language at school, so you learn...

I would have guessed that you would have said your second language was Binary.....:D In the USA, every public school requires a foreign language. I would say that in the US if your family spoke English at home, you likely took Spanish in Public middle and high school. At the very least you...

Yes, Equities and options in a sim environment that is meant to train traders.

We offer Sterling Trader Pro. Our demo would not suit you but Sterling Trading Tech (STT) has a simulator that might. It is not free. I think they charge $65/month plus market data. If you like it, you can open an account with us to trade with it...

Without going into details, we are getting a lot of calls from day traders that are unhappy with the current "free" offering at TD.
