It's threads like this that show how little people know, and how much they think they know. You wouldn't believe the cost of overhead in private practice, even for well established practices. Within the past few years it has become almost impossible for private practices to stay in business, and...

Yes sim account :), still very happy with it. unfortunately lost $190 on my real account today =/

Traded the sim account for 14 day trial with Open E Cry today, 600 trades, 2300 in commision and over 43k in profit. Wish it was real =/

Looking for prop firm with 5k down, remote trading allowing trading the ES S&P 500. Any recs would be appreciated. Will take series 7 gladly if I have too.

Anyone that has RECENT experience with Open E Cry, can you please share your thoughts. I am leaning towards opening an account with them, but concerned about data feed issues a while back.

I trade a 5k account and take money out of it to live on somewhat. I also have a second job that helps but it is totally doable. I trade SPY and QQQQ options 99% of the time and make consistent small gains. It isnt much, but $200 a day is not bad for such a small account. I did however blow...

I just set up an account with IB to move my IRA that was being managed by a financial advisor who works for northwestern mutual to a self-managed IRA. My question is, should I just transfer it over through a direct roll over to IB account? I thought that would be the easiest way to do it, but...

you idiots that keep saying doctors are making to much, and blah blah blah why do they think their better then anyone else? You have NO idea what the hell your talking about. The overhead of private practice doctors is incredibly high. Lease on equipment, lease on building, phone service...

You are so gullible. It's people like you who know nothing that is going to get this idiot elected. $250,000/year is not much, not at all. I know doctors that run their practice that make well above that, but with expenses they are only brining home 100k/year. Taxing will only make it worse...

Id recommend learning a bit more about leverage if you are using such little capital. I only trade with about $2-3k in my account, and I use ToS. Trade options only and make 300-1200 a week doing it. The 1500 you have with three different brokers is just stupid though, you don't want that at all.

S&P is ridiculous, yesterday they recommend hold, today they cut it. Come on people.

How did you guys end up this morning? Did you get out or still holding?

I am fully prepared to take the series 7 exam, but I can not find a sponsor. I have experience but it seems my lack of college education is holding me back from firms. Any advice, if there is any options for me would be greatly appreciated.

I trade mostly using options, and occasionally buy/sell stocks themselves. I need a place where I can get my money in relatively fast. Currently I am using Etrade and they took 9 business days for my money to clear, and in this market it is unacceptable for me. I have used optionsxpress in...

You would have to be crazy to buy more at $3.80. You do realize Wednesday it was trading at $2.00. There is news flying out of every corner these days and these past two days were a result of fear both on govt and our side. I do think they might rise as well, but not without falling back down...

What will happen if WFC, or HSBC or somebody buys them? Most likely remain the same name and locations?

They will honor it, but lets keep hope for WM!

I think the time has finally come to say goodbye to Washington Mutual. I am one of the few it seems on this website that actually likes banking with them. Down to $1.80 in afterhours, they can only go so low. They have been extremely good to me, still hoping they pull through this mess...

What are some good options books to read? I am looking for beg-intermediate level.
