I'm not a Day-Trader! I'm an Investor!

I thought I had a pretty good deal. I paid twenty dollars a trade. I don't make a lot of trades. I sell one or two stocks a month and then reinvest in one or two stocks. That averages out to about one trade a week. Well I didn't realize it at the time, but any third grader could have told me that I would pay $1,000 in commissions every year! If I can save $950 of that each year, and invest it at a 10% return, at the end of twenty years I will have an additional fifty-five thousand dollars! Wow, that will buy a nice boat! For FREE! That's the beauty of compounding interest!

So instead of paying that money to some broker who I don't even know and who won't return my phone calls, I'm going to save that money for my own boat!

I found a discount broker that only charges $1.00 in commissions for trading 100 shares of stock! I opened an account and you can start playing with their trading system without sending them any money. It's far better than the current trading system I use. It's much faster to trade and it displays streaming quotes! These quotes update automatically on the screen while you just watch -- until you want to trade -- far better than the "real-time quotes" that my old account had. And my old broker charged for these quotes!

These are the same tools that professional day traders are using! I know someone who is paying $25.00 a trade for similar ECN trading execution! And she makes more trades in a month than I make in a year! If she switches to InteractiveBrokers she could own a whole fleet of boats! This is a great deal! On a 100 share trade you already have a half-point advantage over that other broker! Check them out for FREE! You can open an account and download their software without sending in any money!
