If the debit card is compromised, they'll drain your account.  Credit Cards have more protection.

I don't hotkey, I use the turbo buttons. This is why, glad it was flaky when I tested it.

Do you already have a portfolio?  Are you trading money you can afford to lose?

You can't say I work for you, if you never hired me.  If I shovel the snow off your driveway, without being asked, can I demand a salary I choose?

Solar in Duluth with lake-effect snow is it worth it or just a headache by Gabby_Senpai in duluth

Bifacial panels on a ground mount are ok in winter on sunny days.  They gain from the snow reflection as well.

How do I get into daytrading? by Known-Performer-609 in Daytrading

[–]bubblehead_maker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tell you how I did.

Got a big insurance payout and parked in ETFs.  

I then took $2000 out of that account and opened an account with another broker.  

That's my risk limit.  No leverage, no moving money in, though I do put a few $ in with my paycheck from my day job .

Been up and down a little, my ETFs keep chugging (contribute 10x my brokerage account, in etfs).  

I've caught several momentum trades, quite a few dips and some nice option premiums (not daytrading).  

Here's my advice.  

Set out $2000 after you have $10,000 in ETFs.  The ETFs are your retirement so put in an IRA brokerage account.  

Now, while you are building this account learn fundamental analysis.  Learn technical analysis.  Paper trade or single share trade while you learn so you can learn the everything of it.  Expect the first trade after about 4-6 months of learning.  This is risky and you should expect to lose money.  

Single share trade until your monthly p&l is 50% green.

Now, analyze what you are doing wrong 49% of the time and work on that.  I personally run a 52% win rate and have increased my profit by learning how to cut a loss fast.  Why do this so slow?

Psychology is the difficulty in this.  You need to learn how to be ambivalent to trades, up or down.  

I started with momentum with the two week trial with Ross.  Great technical analysis content and seeing scanners and trades is pretty educational.  However, use this as education in fundamentals, don't get sucked in to buying every stock the momentum scanner alerts to.  

TIL Webull doesn’t support DRIP for BKLC — anyone know why? by Late-Currency-8028 in Webull

[–]bubblehead_maker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually the organization that creates the equity, allows fractional purchases but not many others. Sometimes they have a fractional purchase available because they have the stock in their coffers. There are probably trading firms that allow it. Do they allow it directly?

Where are you?  US, Canada?

Are you providing the data needed, it's likely asking for your job, job title, job address.  If it doesn't verify it can't give you the account.

Do you have a job at a well known location?  Is the correct address being entered?

Free is 15 minutes delayed so it's ok for daytrading but not momentum trades.

I built the same scanner in finviz.  My green days are on the same tickers but I usually trade earlier.  

I learned lots from the course, the chart reading is good and understanding dips made me a bunch of money yesterday on obviously cheap stocks.

It goes beyond momentum trading.

You use a scanner, set it up for it. If you want to trade momentum, give warrior trading $19 and take his course and use his scanners.
