timmohthee | How does one get into day trading with really no bankroll? |
i have always followed stocks since a young teenager as a hobby; never really got into trading. but now as a young adult, there are just times when i know a stock is going to move (i.e. official release of iphone boosted apple's stock nine dollars that day but we all knew it was coming). that's a lot of money over a hundred or thousand shares. but how do you get into the actual day trading process? as a college kid, you can already assume i have next to nothing in cash. are there ways to buy and sell stock within a week with practically no bankroll? or am i just doomed and need the money to make some |

Ah the lure of daytrading! The funny thing about watching the market is that you always remember the trade you should have made. There is something professionals say all the time when someone starts discussing a trade they wanted to make you will be interrupted with "shoulda, coulda, woulda".
Unfortunately you are right, you do need money to day trade and as a previous writer noted you need $25k for a broker to allow you to consistently day trade. I believe that is a Fed Reserve requirement not SEC. Note that I say consistent though. The broker can't prevent you from selling a position you recently bought but if they identify you as a daytrader you will have to bring your equity up to $25 before they let you do it again.
Try the top 10 trader thing below or any kind of honest papertrading. And while your at it try a long term paper portfolio for kicks. I'll bet in a year you'll wish you really invested the long term ideas - its amazing! |

In order to daytrade you have to have $25,000 in capital otherwise the SEC won't let you do it. You could try trading Forex though. Most brokers allow you to open an account with $250 an give you leverage up to 400 times. |

You could convince someone who does have money to let you invest their money. This is no easy task, usually people with money need to see some proof that you know what you are doing. for now, you might want to create a portfolio with "play" money - to fine-tune your skills. You can do this at http://www.top10traders.com - this is a free site that lets you create a portfolio of stocks with $100,000 in "play" money. Each day the site ranks the best performing portfolios, so you can see how your picks perform compared to other investors. You can also read posts on investing from the best traders, as well as share your own investing ideas. There is also a charting feature , so you can see how your portfolio performs compared to the S&P 500.

Day trading takes a large bankroll to make it worthwhile. Another option to consider if you wish to get in and out of a security in a short period of time is options. You can leverage a large amount of stock for a lot less money. It is more risky because options prices move up and down more quickly than the stock (as a percentage of the investment). They also can lose the full value of the option if too much time has elapsed.
Consider only large companies and options with high volumes and always use limit orders.
They are offered through online brokerages such as scottrade and etrade.
Use only money you can afford to lose. |

You cannot get into day trading without a lot of money because day trader broker charges commission fees way more than regualar investor!
In order to be a day trader sitting somewhere on your computer, you will need a real time trading program to do day trading or else all these stocks or ETFs price are delayed in few minutes! Real time trading program cost money monthly!

You really need $10,000.00 USD to participate in the World Poker Series.
If you want to be a daytrader then you need at least $25,000.00 USD. |

Use leverage. You can borrow what you have, so you can basically use 2 times of your principal. |
