Thanks for the advice!! ML asks for experience in financial services, and believe me if I wasn't fresh out of school that would be my first choice. Has anyone here actually worked or knew someone who worked for Prudential or Northwestern? I have been looking online and Northwestern...

Despite my love for the market, I simply do not have enough capital (actually I'm in debt) to start trading. After considering my best skills, I believe I will be most successful selling financial services. I narrowed my company search down to: Prudential Financial, and Northwestern Mutual...

I recently sold and shipped $600 of college textbooks on half.com.... however before ebay direct deposited my $$$, they limited my account for no reason stating I was "an unacceptable security risk." Even after talking to them I still have to wait 90 days for them to give me my money..... My...

LOL... I have to agree.... not to say women are dumber than men, I just feel that natural characteristics of men make better business owners. I too agree that eBay has already pasted its prime...

I'm glad I didn't buy and puts....

I don't have any of those programs, so stat. data is out. I was just suggesting a long put for the following reasons: Google is at its 52 week high Previous trends have shown downward movements before the stock has broken new highs I heard some lawsuits are being filed against YouTube...

I go to DePaul and they are actually cutting their options and or futures class. I was also looking into prop trading, however I couldn't find a company that provides me with a decent amount of training. I am also a Finance major and very highly motivated to work with the markets. If you...

I am also a college students and was considering day trading, but changed my mind to trade over 2 or 3 months at a time. This way I'll still learn about the markets and have time to enjoy my last year. You really should take it easy bro... i'm with optionpoet, find a chickenhead around...

Thanks for the tip, I am ordering a copy today (any other reading material suggestions are welcome). I am not a 100 percent on this, but I think it is best for me to take an entry-level position, and open up my own account on thinkorswim..... I am somewhat knowledgable of the markets, but I...

I am planning on trading options and want to know which service has the best software for the money. I have been looking at optionsxpress and think or swim.

Even if I do not do the prop trading thing, I will definately start trading options to get a feel for the market. I love the stock market and I love the idea of being a trader. Do you know of any literature you think I should read?

They did not mention any software fees to me, just 20% of my earnings and a flat rate on all my trades (can't remember offhand). OK I'm glad I posted because now I am becoming more aware that there is a good chance to lose my money. They never gave me the impression that I was going to...

The company is Ameriprise Financial. The main reason that this seems so attrative to me is because I can start trading when I'm in school. I am a realist, and everyone has told me that I will lose money at first, but I figure that if I start doing small trades for the first few months just...
