Hello everybody!
After roughly 11 months of studying and papertrading I've finally finished my IB account application and I am ready to start trading! At first I thought I will start in September of last year but no money and first college semester made it impossible to trade for me back then. So I took my time to study and now - after watching hundreds maybe even thousands of hours of video lessons and reading tons of blog posts by lots of different traders - I am about to start trading with roughly $4400. I hope I am prepared enough. Let's see where I'll be in 3 months.
Have a nice day everyone and I hope you wish me luck (just a little bit, c'mon it's not that hard)
Good Luck, you're doing it the right way in my opinion. Lots of unforeseen obstacles which deepens the learning curve jumping in live without experience.
@GreTa how to get rid of 20 min delay in TOS?
@april4 In you TOS Platform, click on CHARTS, then go to your upper right hand corner where you see SETUP, click on the WHEEL, then click on APPLICATION SETTINGS, scroll down to SYSTEMS, click on that, and then click on QUOTE SPEED, select REAL TIME (no delay). Try that first.
@april4 If that doesn't work, call them and ask for Real Time Data on your Paper-Trading Account, they're usually happy to Oblige, but first try the steps above, it will only work if you have a funded TD Ameritrade Account.
