Rick, I tried to catch you on the chat – just wanted to ask a question.
I don’t live in the US and the flat fees for stock trades are about $16 each way, the cheapest that I can find anywhere online. (I’m not sure if that includes the US market, it might even be more like $20 per trade).
I think I read that you are paying about a flat $2 per trade? At $20 per trade, what sort of amounts would I need to be trading in to make it worthwhile, or I should I just pass altogether? I appreciate that the margins are small on the swing trades especially.
Thanks
