Do note - with Interactive Brokers you will have to pay for Live Data and Level 2 but it is very cheap. If I am not mistaken they will void the monthly cost of the Live Data if you traded $30 worth of commission each month and the cost of the Live Data is $16 so even if you did not make the cut, $16 is much better than $90/month.

An IB account and a Etrade account seems to be a good combo. IB has great borrows and a nice commission structure, and Etrade often has shares to short that IB does not.

@Madbash I honestly do not know much about ETRADE, but I have heard great things about them as when it comes to borrows. But if @DrCP has been doing good with Robinhood, he can use IB as his "shorting" account and save on the cost of "per trade" and the monthly platform cost also. Just my thought.

I appreciate the comments guys! I love the free trades that I get with Robinhood, but they don't offer short selling. I may rethink IB. I will have to do some more work to learn their platform. But the same goes for Etrade. I just love the ToS platform a lot. Thank you! I appreciate the insight. It has given me much to think about!

Learn about "Cup and Handle" Trade Small to Start, ie 100 Shares. No need to rush, this is a Marathon not a Sprint. Watch as many videos/lessons as you can, and get HTMM. The cost and time it takes to watch will be your best investment before trading.
