We'll probably start a different thread for the new long-term game.


I opened up a Scottrade Account, but definitel need more practice before trading there.

I might not be in the lead, but know this:  I didn't lose money on a single trade.

And that is what I was going for.




Of course, I only really traded one stock, over and over.

If you haven't added any money yet, do your self a favor and check out www.choicetrade.com that's who I use. Scottrade charges I think $7 but can charge as mucvh as $10 on certian types of stocks, Choice Trade is $5 no matter what type of stock it is. Scottrade realy bends you over if you trade any pennies or pink sheets.

The othher thing is I've seen many people post about waiting a long time on the hold when contacting scottrade. With Choice Trade I've never waited more than 2 or 3 mins. In fact I just called them about 5 mins ago and was talking to someone about 30 seconds I picked my choice in their menu. In short their support is very good.

The only advantage to Scot Trade is they have local branches if you are close to one.

Sweet Laser  :aok

Crockett, I won't put a dime into a stock in RL until I get FAR better at the cyber version.

I learned a lot of lessons (set the record for the lost trades) and started to idenify trends.  Give me another few months on the extended game and we'll see if RL money gets gambled.
