I just ticked no, no, no ,no to most the questions which i think irrelevant to me, based on common sense. i wonder if i need some1 who knows wat these r than i simply ticked?

i only scared the legal consequence should commoner/beginner like me when filing forms as such

Thx, dreams_achiever


in VT, r we provided with realtime stock chart? if so, where to click ,cant seem to find.
how about if we trade live, does optionxpress provide the realtime stock chart too?

the realtime stock chart is a crucial tool right?

the 'ADD $5k' is unlimited or r we limited to how many times.
i really appreciate it

VT doesn't provide charting tools. In real trade, yes. It provide real time charting.
You can go to Quote detail > click any chart and it will redirect you to Flex chart / Basic charting tools.

I din try many times to add more funds into VT. I think no limit gua. Why want to bother with it? lolz
It just tools to get familiarize with Optionxpress system. Once familiar d, get real with it..hehe  icon_idea.gif

Another tools that you can consider is OptionsOracle. Google and install it.  thumbup.gif

thanks for ur time n reply
then if optionxpress does provide realtime charting, then i don hv to go look for it elsewhere...just weird everyone seem to be using 'more premium' online broker yet scrambling elsewhere (i.e. net) for realtime chart as if it was rare. or even look for third party realtime charting. just wonder wht m i missin

yea i guess, swim in the ocean is best to learn life lesson than pool after acquired basic knowledge...
thx for tips^^
