not sure I agree with 'daytraders avoid freetrade like the plague'
I have it, have margin with ONLY 10k in my acct on avg, trade in and out well over 100 times PER DAY, NO MARGIN CALL..........well, that is unless I buy a marginable stock with more than I have in my acct, then I get the mc.
But truth be told, since I set my acct up as margin, I do NOT get margin calls etc, I just have that running red 'day trading power call' lit up........means NOTHING I have been told, and have been doing this for over a year now with Freetrade.
Dont know what to tell you guys, but this is a fact.
RELAX.........oli is here....;)
