@alwaysmovin just became a fully transparent trader today!
@MichaelGoode can you suggest what data package to get with Interactive Brokers? There are so many on offer, I have no idea which one to get. Thanks

@jaybizzle Tim doesn't use TWS to look at charts or quotes-- just to trade. He uses Etrade Pro for everything else

Doesn't IB cost more than Etrade when you trade over 10,000 or more of a penny stock. I remember I got charged a lot and then got e trade for pennies since they charge a flat rate and IB is per share.

10,000 shares or more I mean. Someone in chat got charged 60 round trip for 20,000 shares of SKLN today.

Yes, Trading large number of shares at IB of low-priced stocks will get expensive. For me that is worth it because IB is one of the few brokers that will let you short such stocks. But if you will be trading lots of sub $0.50 stocks then a per-trade commission plan (such as with Etrade) would be better.
TO ALL THE NEWBIES - Be very careful of this tactic. If you are aware of it, you can capitalize off it as well.
Tim Sykes should make a video about this. It would go along way to the many traders out there who are not aware of this happening.
i have installed stockstotrade. but i cant seem to be able to buy any stock with it. do i need to get another broker for that? am new to this. please help
i dont think you can trade with stt just monitor stocks and extras such as twitter integration. You will need a broker(such as etrade) for that
