Sounds like the entire world would benefit from from setting up an international currency exchange even with limited regulation...

Yeah I was about to say that... The poor here live like nobles in other countries... And the difference here is that the poor have all the tools necessary to BECOME THE NOBILITY. Yes, yes, there's nepotism and the whole money begets money etc... but nowhere else on this planet can...

The secret that is worth wasting time typing ridiculous posts for people who don't have any respect for the poster?

The maturity is quite obvious here.

Why don't you share the wealth, or profit from your research? If you really have multiple systems that have a hit rate of even %60, you could sell one for a boatload of cash for an additional income source. Anyone who has to brag about something they can't even in the most remote sense...

Thanks

OT: Anyone know the 10-02-06 YM settlement price?

I would expect most of my lots to be sub 1000 shares, not many in the 100 range mind you, but for 2-400 shares IB or MB or any of those would save me so much money and allow me to be more active and both systems help keep me out of hitting the PDT restriction as I think my init deposit would be...

Thanks spyder... I actually got halfway through MB's application and saw they have a 50k income minimum... Thanks anyways...

Thanks for the reply Ken, but I'm not sure about Choicetrade, it really seems like Firstrade except it's a dollar cheaper. I'd really like the option of being able to bracket orders and I'd have to pay 99 a month for that at choicetrade... i'd probably go over to TS if I'm going to pay 100 a...

Just checked out OptionsExpress... it's only per share above 1000 shares... and under 1000 shares it's 14.95... ouch... that's double what I'm paying now...

I bet it's more related to my income level even though in reality the only monthly obligation I have is 330.00 and I make 18k a year on top of whatever my funds and trading do.... It's life... hear hear to the PDT law, that's such a BS law, I understand it's to protect Joe Six pack from 3AM...

Arrgh. MB has a 50k min income a year. Just out of curiousity... but where the hell am I supposed to go to get decent comissions and a data feed? Sorry... now I'm starting to get a little pissed. I understand I'm a student. But I actually have positive net worth and experience trading, I...

I understand. I really need to redo my net worth figures. 51k in 3 funds 3k in cash account Firstrade owe 10k on car but car is worth approx 19-20 kbb is 22 so I'm being realistic here (i realize the car depreciates) 5k in savings 6k in checking no other bills, no rent, no...

I'm not quite following the whole potential lawsuit issue... oh well... Sure dental school costs alot of money, but it's really not much more than attending any other state school. As far as I know, IB had absolutely zero knowledge of my future educational plans. While I understand them...

I'm sorry you think I'm immature Rosy... I posted here because ET is how I learned of IB. Sorry if I offended you. What past liability Bitstream? My 9k I owe on my car loan? (Not trying to be rude, but the only reason I don't pay it off is because the note is at 4.2%) I came here to ask...

I'm an undergrad student, no day job but I do have about 18k yearly income from my rental assets. Starting dental school come Aug 07. Yeah, it must've been my trading experience years and # of trades... I was honest about them. Lol... It's funny that if I had lied I probably would've been...

I sent an email to IB and go this response back (not complaining, I respect their right to not disclose info) ----------------------- Dear Customer, IB does not disclose information regarding account rejections. Management reviewed your account and decided it was in IB's best interests...

No, I wasn't going to put all 40 in, I just realized it might be that I only tried to put in 6k and was expecting to put another 5 in as I liquidated my other brokerage account at Firstrade. I realize I'm a little fish right now but their commisions are eating away at my profits. Oh well...

IB just rejected my application today which I don't quite understand why... (If you have an idea, let me know) Must be my age (23), but I have about 40k positive net worth with only 9k in liability with a 720+ beacon. Anyways, now that IB has shown me personally what kind of brokerage they...
