On a percentage basis it's huge, but I barely have enough to open a margin account. That being said, I read somewhere that a bull market makes you feel lucky while a bear market makes you pay. While I don't think we're in a bear market, we did hit a rough patch. My luck ran out. Live and learn from your mistakes though.

Thanks. I just picked up Murphy's TA book. Should be here soon. To be honest, I'd rather have this happen now while I'm still new at the game than later when I have a larger amount of capital on the line. I knew this was coming but it still stings hah.

Ouch! Up 180% to now down 15%? My sincere condolences. I went through a similar situation when I first got into the stock market and I was trading penny stocks (I can't believe how foolish I was looking back). It's the main reason I switched my stock market strategy and went for investing in major stocks.

Sorry to hear that things aren't going well Jorge. Trading technically is an excellent choice. Let me know if I can help.

ThinkorSwim is specialized more for options trading I think. In terms of options pricing, they'll match almost any other broker's pricing. They have a great software platform that's extremely responsive. Over the next month or so I'm leaving Zecco for TOS and saving about $3 per options trade since I only trade a couple of contracts at a time.
