Doubling Stocks

AntDU asked:


I began buying and selling stock this year. I am doing my year end figures for my visit to my accountant. How do I go about this? Should I basically subtract the losses from the gains to come up with a total gain/loss?

I am trying to get an idea before seeing her.

What do I do with the stocks that are still in my account?

Should I subtract Commissions from the gain and increase losses by the amout?

I’m using E-Trade, what is the difference (in general if you wish) between a cash trading account and a margin trading account?

I’m a bit confused, if you want to buy a stock then the bid is the highest price that you would pay for it. So why is it then that when you actually purchase a stock you pay the ask price….? Also, how does the bid/ask spread really work and how do the market makers make money?

I’m 17 and want to trade stocks/options for a living. I have gone to classes and kind of understood somethings but somethings were still confusing. How long did it take you to understand everything? I want to actually start real trading by the time i graduate which is June 2009.

I have noticed that Windows on my laptop operates with constant attacks and you read about viruses constantly and malware etc on Windows. There are times when software shuts down or is inaccessible. That doesn’t work for trading strategies, because if you cannot respond to the market, you are done, cooked.

I want to start an online stock trading to learn some money. I’m only investing $300-500. Should I use etrade or scottrade. I don’t get how those online. Do you make a bank account in the online stock trading and do you have to pay a fee. Please tell me everything you know?

I see advertisements mostly for Scottrade, Etrade, and Ameritrade, but am unsure of which company I should use. I am not wanting to trade very much, more or less just dabble in it. Any suggestions?
