@Torkers Cut your losses quicker.
@Torkers Interactive Brokers are pretty cheap in the industry in general. Maybe someone is cheaper. I would suggest you dedicate a couple of hours work, creating a spreadsheet, with all the price variables, and compare different brokers. There are many fees to consider, so getting a overwiew in a spreadsheet is a great way. Also have in mind (if you prepare to make shortselling) that IB have way better borrows, than Thinkorswim. IB - TSW platform, also comes free. It can really pay to choose the right broker from start, so do the digging. - Link: https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=1590

@JKelly lol. Yeah I considered CP but I think I will wait until I am shorting more before I try them out. It looks like they have a lot of fees for just about everything and since I mainly go long, IB should offer me everything I need.

go to your dashboard section, then statistics print it up and stare at it until there's a area that your good at. After that make spread sheets which patterns fit your trading criteria . ??

My takeaway - you need to think about the long run. Making or losing money doesn't matter at all in the beginning. You need to develop a repeatable framework. Think about the long run.
