I'm using DLJ Direct and have 2 year history with them.. I haven't made any money during that time... some ups and some downs... I think I've traded about 200K during that time span and about broke even. I've made a lot of mistakes <ggg>, but they have made lots of commissions.
I filled out the forms they send you, and they replied that I didn't show enough income.. (My income is just Social Security and State Retirement) about 20K annual.
So I've just been buying stock.
Thanks for the suggestions.. I've thought about opening another brokerage account and not telling them... so I can use one account for trading and the other account to hold stock long like CPQ..
Any more suggestions welcomed.
Regards,
Ken Miller
