I started the E-trade about five years ago and
I did good on some and bad on others I got ford @ $2.00 and Serious Radio @ 0.36 cents, but I took a total loss on GM and a local bank. I am a good bit ahead right now. You should start slow, but keep in mind that each trade cost around $12.00, so if you buy one share or a thousand it cost $12.00 to buy and $12.00 to sell. Don't expect to trade for a couple of weeks because of govt regulations it takes a while before they release your funds for trading. I think they are looking for money laundering?? Good luck!!
