I am considering pursuing a trading opportunity with Echotrade. They ask for a minimal capital contribution to get started, which kind of scares me.

They will help me pass the Series 7 and teach me to trade their way.

What's the capital contribution? $50k? It sounds like the typical day trading operation. If so, SEC studies have shown that on 95% of day traders go bust within a year.

The brokerage firm, however, does extremely well since it's collecting on all the commissions the recruits generate trading every day.
