Hi I'm new here.
Traded for a couple of months stocks on Ameritrade but my account got closed as I'm not in the US. Made on average just above 5% per month, which made me want for more. I started with 5K$ so I'm not a billionaire yet, neither can I live from it.
Switched now to Zecco on the basis of their low rates. I'm not too happy with it, apart from the fact that the platform is way inferior from Ameritrade, the biggest issue I have with them is the very slow execution of the trades. When submitting an order it's marked as "under review" and it feels like ages until it's placed.
I'll see what the tradeking merger gives, if we're not kicked out again. In the meantime if anyone has good experience with online stock trading platforms, open to US citizens, let me know.
I'm also going to start trying forex in the contest, see what that gives.
Greetings from a cloudy Dubai
