Hi
i need advice to choose a broker.
I have 3000 USD to invest.
I want to be able to short sell and buy long.
I am not a us resident, i live in sweden.
I wanted to start with suretrader because it did not have PTD rule and also you can shortsell stocks. But it is offshore, and tim sykes recommended not to use a offshore broker.
Is suretrader good? does it have good executions (the desktop platform) How much does the platform cost with level 2 information etc. And also is it reliabel? Do they have good short list available, can you finde good shorts with suretrader? Do they offer paper trading?
How about etrade? do they have low requirments, and can i also shortsell with 3000 USD.Do they offer paper trading?
Ok, but does suretrader have good executions? and do they have good shorting list?
does it cost 100 USD a month for software fees and level 2 information.
Yes $100 per month for level 2 and platform fees. As far as executions goes, they use DAS so my guess is yes. They apparently have good borrows something like a 10000 ticker list or something. I invite you to go chat with customer support if you want real answers though. A broker is kind of like a car, you shop around and chose something for yourself right?
it costs 104 USD per month
