Hey Wazuans,

I am new. Need some advice on brokerage firms. I have retired from my day job (I am 30 years old) and want to make money day trading.
I need some advice on the best brokers on the following:-

1- Speed of execution of orders. I am currently with a brokerage firm that is as slow.

2-Brokerage fees. Just noticed my broker charges "transaction fees" plus a commission. Needless to say, that is money I'd rather have in my pocket.

3-Speedy service.

Thanks in advance

sorry to say you can't daytrade the NSE. 2% fees,3 day settlement,no leverage and poor execution.

you can try learning Forex or futures,with the latter requiring at least $5000 minimum balance.

I'm so amazed most people don't know this options exist.

Next you have to buy(cracked shhhhh!) backtesting software .Best is Amibroker but you need to learn C#/AFL language.

let the games begin.....I'd be amazed if you can find a quantifiable edge in less than 2 yrs.

This game is so simple its wickedly hard. You have pros against pros,what are your chances?

I don't want to discourage you but the facts are that about 2% of players are net profitable after a decade.

It's the hardest way to make money.

Dyer & Blair, from what l'v read in this site they are slow. On the forex trading, the effect of the new rules may have an impact on my profit margins. Any one with experiences of trading in other markets in Africa? Would appreciate the insight if they are more speedier than the local one.

This is the trading site for dyer and blair

@Mukiri do you even own a brokerage account??
