E-Trade Going Under?

e-trade bank is a separate entity . if you have 100k in e-trade bank and 100k with e-trade brokerage you are fine. the stock brokerage is covered separately.

I don't think so. It won't allow me to short ameritrade in my ameritrade account and that stock is going up.

 

Ask them why.

Could be that you never opened a short account or that you're undercapitalized for a short account. Also, TDAmeritrade has a lot of rules and restrictions that traders can find frustrating, but these very restrictions ( insisted on by partner TD Bank ) are what keep this broker safe from bankruptcy.

 

once again, this proves that fancy mbas and phds are useless in the trading world. you must control your emotions namely fear n greed in the trading pit.

 

I was in at 400 and 355.

Take a look at the daily... the writing has been on the wall for some time now.

Sure, say nothing when they're down 60%, but then show up after they're up 50%!
