What started this volume up swing is that online trading started around 1995. Ameritrade, Suretrade, etc. offered huge discounts and super low account minimums. This allowed people with limited money to trade like the big boyz.

 

Prior to that, you had to go through a regular broker, which most of them had a $10-25k minimum limit to open an account, and $40-$100 commissions per trade.

Anyway, so I'm in my room just thinking about life and what not.. so I pull up a chart of the Dow Jones since 1980.. and wow.. just wow. 

 

From 1980 until 2000 was the biggest bull market, EVER. I'm pretty pissed I wasn't born earlier to take advantage of that uptrend. I mean, it just went STRAIGHT up for 20 years. 

 

I have NO SYMPATHY for anyone old enough to invest/trade around 1980-2000 and didn't get rich taking advantage of this gift basically hand fed to us.. 

 

Now I notice some things in this chart I'm about to show. 

 

1. Around 2000, volume picked up from the volume of years before. Pretty much started doubling, at alarming rates.

 

2. Then you have the crash of 2000. Now from looking at this chart, the crash of 2009 looks WAY MORE vicious than the 2000 tech boom crash. It dropped very rapidly in a much shorter time frame than the 2000 crash.. This concerns me..  Also look at the volume for the past 5 years.. wtf is going on? Why is there so much volume now but not before? I'm guessing everything is just expanding? (money/inflation, credit, prices rise, economic boom, QE's, debt, blah blah blah)

Now the all time high of the Dow was 14,198.. We are looking toppy, but I really hope history repeats itself and we BOOM once again.. so my generation gets another amazing opportunity!

hey i know you use zecco

how fast do they fund your account when you transfer funds from bank account and into zecco via ACH?

what method do you transfer funds to your account?

 

i need an account to trade options for the next 3 months until tdameritrade fixes my account

 

any experience with funds transfer and such at zecco?

Just wanted to chime in since I use zecco.

 

it's generally 2-3 business days until the money is in your account. I've never had any bad experiences with zecco. They are cheaper, however the platform isn't as good as Etrade or TD. Never had any problems with fund transferring.

WAVX down -22 ticks in AH... supposedly they didn't release their 10k in time because of some accounting errors.. I hope this slut doesn't gap down tomorrow at the open. Oh well... we'll see popcorn.gif

Here's a quote from Wyckoff regarding paper trading. 

 

"Just as with any other line it is practice that makes perfect, and most of the fatalities in Wall Street can be traced to a lack of practice. You don't have to risk real money when you are learning, and I always advocate two or three years---not two or three months, mind you--of this kind of study, if one is seriously considering participation in this greatest of all games"
