    AMP Charging me for $300 Margin

    That looks like a commissions of $3.30/side. I don't charge that but I would never offer $300 margin on ES for DT with the initial margin being $5280. A 6 point move can wipe you out. Sounds fair to me. I know hedge funds that pay that at the larger banks with larger accounts to get their...

    To be honest, I used them before 2011. I liked them very much and it was worth the cost to me. Now, I would just use the charts on our software, but I'm not a chartest.

    day trading VIX futures vs ES?

    day trading VIX futures vs ES?

    Why do you have to choose one or the other? Why can't you have them both on your radar and enter trades in the ones that have opportunities based on your strategy.

    tax returns ... approximate cost to have done by accountant?

    I have no stock sales as I only have trading in my Roth. Besides that, turbotax is very easy to use. I have been using it for 4 years. Before that, I use an accountant my adult life. I think it is important to use a specialist to plan your business, LLC, MTM etc. But after that, I prefer to do...
