Will be seeing you all this year as well. I had to make some of my own choices and do some research. @timothysykes is definitely transparent and a good mentor.
Yeah- I so agree ;) Total verify your trades and you will get wayyy more imput from other trades as well. We are a profitly family, but ppl who tend not to be transparent rarely stay long as they Peter out...
* more imput from other traders
Peter out meaning that they run when the first trial or hardship comes along ;)

Taurus you make some good points. Also, paper trading is a good way to try to learn consistent set ups
Definitely set your limits bro. As a combat vet myself, it was discipline in the Army yes, but this is a new type of discipline. You are talking more mental fundamentals when dealing with money. Limit yourself, and don't try to get rich quick. A good 250-500$ a day is what most dream about anymore. Trading with a 5000 account as mentioned and using up to 10% on day trading is enough.
I recommend that you fund with at least 10k to start but you'll be PDT restricted if you're American. It's better to have 30-40k if you want to day trade equities. For futures, I recommend 5k or better 10k per contract.
RE: the percentages, if you're underfunded, you'll realize that you're risking a lot. If you're using all of your funds,then you're taking on too much risk. "Never put all of eggs in one basket." It's better to risk 1k to 2k on 10k+ vs 500 on 1k account.

@Slickwatchem How's that SUNE trading for you?

uwti would stay away from its a oil company

Sune seems like a steal at current levels, what are your thoughts?
Continuance on the up trend showing 5 min chart. Depending on whether or not you're a day trader, this would be a good one to buy probably. VIX is still down, and in alignment with SPY.

IB lets you paper trade without funding an account now. I think you can demo their mobile too...
paper trading is to learn the system of the company you might trade with. SO really look at what you want to be using and try theirs.
I would say thinkorswim.
Well, I never use a trading app so I didn't know about any best one. It's my dream to make an app by myself, I also take https://www.andromo.com/app-builder/ help to me learn how to make the app without coding. If you also want to make your own app you can also visit here.





I would suggest ThinkorSwim for charts and studies.
tc2000 is good but if you want a free version of it id say freestockcharts
Etrade Pro
