Hi Tim, I am a new student of yours and Tim G's and new to momentum trading altogether. I have limited capital and have decided to start out focusing and learning shorts Per Tim G's DVD. I understand from the DVD that I'll need to have a margin account with a broker to short stock and realize that this will help work around trade settlement delays as well. I saw that you are starting the year with IB (I can't put down the initial minimum) and E-Trade (I have that minimum and then some). E-trade

... appears to have a $50, 000 minimum for margin. Am I right or have I misread? Did you get around the requirement given your net worth or volume or something or can I start a margin account with $2, 000 too so that I can short stocks like you two? THanks, Mich (gatrmich)

P.S. ..And thanks for what you're doing for so many of us...
