Yes, prop firms are required by the SEC to have licensed traders. Yes, it probably is stupid. Sorosisgod, the test doesn't teach you didley...
The test is primarily about options, bonds and government regulations. Useless for trading.
I know there are firms that charge only 2.5/share (such as Echo), but that is given here as a typical charge. In fact, 2.5/share is about as good...
Series 7 has nothing worthwhile to do with actually trading. If you're not gonna go prop, then you have no reason to take the test. And you can't...
Babk, I mentioned that the US had more exposure to Brazil, not to mention Brazil has the biggest economy in Latin America (and hence the biggest...
What does any of this have to do with the suggestion the US will use its military to crush nations that don't pay us back our loans?

T-1 is around $500. DSL/Cable is about $30 or so. For your purposes, T-1 is probably not worth it. It is more for networks, like a company (small...
I'm embarrassed that I made several grammatical errors. I should proof read, but I am too lazy.
I am still at Worldco. There are many reasons why "winners" (which, defined as the people who can make a great deal of money and relatively...
