Wow!!! That is big news!!! That is going to be one heck of a firm, two big boys like this coming together. Congrats to all involved, sounds like a big win for all the ECHO and VB people. I might have to check out the Santa Monica office, someone told me it is down by 3rd Street Promenade...

I like IB.

I am a remote trader, Anchor. Not sure if I would like an office envronment! Happy Trading:)

I have the same problem. This early stuff is for the birds:)

NYC is costly area to live. Better be a good salary :)

None...if your doing them right!

Don, Please stop this self promoting. I think most, if not all members on this board are sick of it.

Robert and cashonly, I also agree with you completely, having good customer service is so essential. I'm sure all the Echo traders are familiar with the "*" key when you call, the Echo trade desk answers within two rings. I have only had to call it for questions on how to set up computers...

Don, I would like to ask you about a few indiscrepancies in your statements. You claim that if the same thing that happened at Harbor were to happen at Bright, the traders would be protected, right? You earlier (in other posts) have claimed that Bright will cover UP TO $10 Million of a...

LuvDaMkts- :p Could you say it slower pleeeeeeez? Obviously, no one heard you :) Maybe a BOLD font?

Wow! Don Bright the Martyr. How insulting. Mr. Bright can't talk to us anymore because he needs to focus on the "good, serious traders who really care about the industry", with the "serious questions" (that he will obligingly answer in private). Not only did our "non-serious...

Don, For those of us that do not need this "God-Send", and have good money management skills, can we opt to take this risk ourselves of saving for our taxes on our own and thus get all of our money as we work hard to make it? I have also heard some things about the 25% of profits you...

Don, If you can please respond to my question about Bright trading holding 25% of traders profits for a year. Is this still the case?

Don, I would like to hear your thoughts on a topic. Everyone I have talked to that has heard your thoughts on the market has said that you are very critical of Nasdaq traders, and that you have said that you can't make money trading Nasdaq stocks. Bright Trading, from what I know, also...

mrbud, You might want to check out: http://series7.hypermart.net This site has general series 7 information. Good luck.

Ace, If you plan on day trading for a living, I would advise you contact an accountant that could set you up on estimated quarterly payments. For now the cd/money market idea is not bad. Happy trading, Courtney

mrbud, The software fees are rebated according to your volume for remote traders at ECHO. Happy trading, Courtney

Cesko, That is very realistic. I have friends who do this all the time. They tell me "This way the boss can't catch me on the computer". :+) Courtney

jmcgraw, You can't beat the tax benefits of being at any pro firm. At the end of the year, instead of having to lug 50 pounds of trading statements down to your accountant's office, you get one summarized statement, a K-2 (about the size of a W-2). It is a one-half page, one-line summary of...

Sniper: "Goldman Sachs' Abbey Joseph downgrades the Hold brothers to sell brothers. Abbey initially started coverage with a market ouperform, but due to the latest remote trading problems has changed her opinion lol " proptrader00: "What are you talking about.... HB is private. AJC...
