But you want to day trade as well as do on line trading?
Also if you are not looking to rely heavily on a broker other than to record the sale , record purchase of stocks etc ?
You can get a full array of services, info and tools through Scottrade…even small investors…BUT you will not be able to " daytrade" without a bankroll. You never want to go on margin..( borrowing) … so for every trade you make, when it comes time to " sell" you should have at least that much cash in your account… and wait the three day settlement period to make your next trade… and if you lose track, or are a poor accountant… you can be suspended from trading very easily.
Soooo…just be satisfied to GET IN…make some small trades…but hold for a week, ten days…see how you do…. and wait between trades…
You will be more of an " investor", but " short- term" for sure !!
