I've bought about 12 books so far on the subject and have only found 3 to be helpful and have read those. Rather than joining a prop firm I'd like to try to trade myself, to try to put some of the ideas together from what I have been reading. I have clicked on the software tab and I see that "Trade Station" seems to be a program where you actually sign up and have a brokerage account, while the other software programs just provide you with software techniques. Where do you guys go for in order to process these trades? Thanks
