Some interesting trade news tonight. $ASTI boomed due to earnings news which I totally failed to take advantage of until too late. Classic emotional trading at its best. I'm learning though. Still, I got out damn quick and was happy... until I saw the fee's OptionsXpress charged me. Holy cow turd. Nearly $200 taking a tiny loss into a big one. Funny enough I've been inquiring with eTrade on switching over so this just convinced me to do so. My % is getting worse but only because I fail to take advantage of the good setups. Need to trust my plans more!
Nah man I havn't heard of them. Personally I would stick to DVD lessons and books. Subscriptions and watchlists are fine if you have the skills to trade well. My 2 cents. At least with books and DVD lessons you can take your time and study at your own speed.
Turns out OptionsXpress are now giving me credit towards my bad trade. Their fee's were crazy and I'm getting back $160.
Theres a newish app called "Robinhood" which apparently is designed with Aussues in mind. It takes away the fees and allows us to trade how the US peeps do. Also can be used on phones. Sounds good and I signed up for it but who knows what its like? Still worth a look.
Oh.. Signed up = Put a waiting list.
