Hello Everyone,
I am new to these forums. I have been learning off of Tim's free material through twitter and his website. I have signed up for STT 1 month free. I will be subscribing to PennyStocking Silver to learn more of the material.
I have a couple questions that i would love answered if anyone is willing to help.

 

1) I have an account with my Bank (9.95$ commission per trade, each way so 20$ total), however i cannot short. I am wondering if a MARGIN account is the best type of account to open for shorting shares. 

2)I am canadian, i live in Ottawa, i have a full time day job. I am able to trade throughout the day. I am wondering if SureTrader is the best way to get that margin account. I hear they charge 4.95$  a trade and even lower if you tell them you are doing penny stocks.

 

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I plan to return favor to other new traders once i get going.

 

Thanks,
Parham
