@WezMan Hey dude, how's it going with Suretrader? I have been looking at them but the account fees look so huge! I am Aussie also and just became a challenge student.

IB account approved! Excited and scared at the same time. Still studying and watching Tim's dvd's. Loved Tim's book highly recommend. I will have more time on my hands in the next month to start trading on American time zone, so that's my night time in Australia.

Just finished reading @timothysykes book ( An American Hedge Fund) this afternoon sitting on the rivers edge in my beautiful island home of Tasmania. Loved the book!!! Tim is just so honest to all his F^$*! up's along the way. I recommend this book to everyone! Not just traders as it's entertaining and educational.

Okay cool, I had some success with small caps on the asx they move so slow. I had no method and just really watching volume and news. Learning level 2 now.

Hi Jack, I was traiding 150 shares so only $600 worth of shares. $4.95 a trade, so in and out $9.90. I tried to sign up for sinkorswim but not available for Australians atm. ST are pretty slow with replying to questions but they got my account up and running in day and a half. I'm about to open an IB account which is expensive but I hope to benefit from the shorts they have compared to ST.
