Understand that trading is hard. If it was easy then everyone would be successful. Look at Roland he studys 17 Hours Per Day. Its all about how bad you want it!.

Well just understand if it was easy everybody would make millions trading. You have to put the hardwork and it is not going to happen overnight like how most people want success. Its a marathon. Rome was not build in a day.

don't be hopeless, i think you should put it in this way, never know when your hardwork become your fortune,

YESS, it is about having the motivation and drive to keep working no matter what distractions life throws at you. If you can study 1 hours night, great, if you can do 2 hours, EVEN BETTER!!! keep grinding man

@AlecRae How do you like Questrades platform and quotes? Easy to navigate and use or is there anything you have noticed? and have you tried their mobile trading?

Thank you everyone for the advice and input!

mobile trading sucks, stay away, only good platform is IQ EDGE

Don't have many penny stock shares to short, thats what you get with a cheap broker,

I never said paper trading is bad, The Market is run by 2 things. FEAR and Greed and people act differently and trade differently when its your own money. When you paper trade you are more willing to take more risk and bigger positions because at the end of the day, If you lose 90K it does not matter. Why Cares, But when you have 100K of Real Money in your bank account. Your not going to trade like how you would trade on paper. Losing 90K in the real world. Thats the big test when it comes to yo

Sorry about typo >Trading Account ->Bank Account

@forcesteeler I totally agree with that, which is why I use the notion "trade paper money like you would your own money" Use the same amount you would have and all. That way it trains you to get used to trading in a similar fashion as you would with real money. For me it was very similar because I was losing money with paper and started real money and continued the losing streak lol.

Probably why I should have waited to trade real money until I corrected my faults in the paper world first.

I would try to stay away from offshore brokers, You never know when they go bust. If you want to beat the patern trader rule just open multiple trading accounts. Etrade, TD, at least your money is insured.

See my brokers http://tim.ly/2016brokers

@forcesteeler Good point

@Tunde1306 ST sucks man...the fees will chow your small account, It forces you to trade because you know the fees are coming so you get into this mind-set of trying to make money to cover the fees...I am not based in the US mind you.and I have $3000 capital.

Great but without an edge it all worthless. So far the only edge I found is to be able to short in after-pre market. But your broker must available shares to short which mine never does so I opt out this rigged game.

and the people who will tell me that suretraders has the sahres to short are wrong, suretrader are a fraud and soon will be out the map.

@juin LOL you've gotta be kidding me that you can't find an edge, go watch http://tim.ly/timgrow

Thank you all for your kind comments. Now @juin, there are countless edges that exist if you're willing to study and research, both long and short. I would avoid trading outside market hours until you gain more experience. Most importantly, before you can win you must first have a winning attitude. Your negativity may be blinding you to opportunities. I agree Suretrader is garbage, but there are other brokers. Future millionaires are bigger than their problems. I wish you the best.
