So far I have not found any free service, however the 
Trade comp ...$125 deposit, $3.20 per RT + $17 per month seems the
most reasonable. Does anyone have a better priced service??

<DIV>I highly recommend TradeComp.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I could not be trading real money with out them.   I am only a 
happy customer,<BR>not affiliated with them otherwise.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Sorry this is so long winded, but in this business I have found
few 
services that are<BR>as good as advertised or as economical. 
Tradecomp is 
one of the few organizations<BR>that really do what they say at a very
fair 
price.  </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Chris, the owner, will set you up as working with a floor broker
or a 
desk.<BR>Just let him know which you would prefer. He is very flexible
in 
that<BR>regard. Or almost any special needs you have. I mix up my
orders. If I 
am<BR>short, I will often say Sell 3 at XX to exit the trade. Let me
tell you, 
all<BR>you have to do is make this mistake once with real money to see 
that<BR>practicing order placement is absolutely necessary to
successful 
trading.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Also, they   are really cheap compared to the other firms out 
there. The price is amazing. <BR>Around $1.60 a turn (unlimited
contracts). I 
get a volume discount most months. <BR>If you day trade you probably
will also, 
that mean less then $1.60 a turn  <BR>And that is for a live broker!  
Basically for less then one wrong trade, you<BR>can trade with him for
several 
months.  (One company I spoke with wanted <BR>15 dollars per contract
to 
trade in simulation! ). </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Chris charges <BR>you for a turn not by the contract, so you
could do 3 
contracts or 10 for the same <BR>price. This is critical when you start 
practicing money management. I enter <BR>with three and take off two
at target 
and then run with the last contract. <BR>Chris has no problem taking
my entry, 
stop and target all at once.  And Just like<BR>a real broker, he and
his

team<BR>stopped the hand holding that a desk would do.  This is
critical 
before you move to<BR>the floor.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I also like the fact that I get an e-mail activity/position
report at 
the<BR>end of the day and a monthly statement. Although I trade real
money 
everyday, <BR>I still have my account with Tradecomp because there are
always 
trades that<BR>I am not sure about or sometimes I feel I need a day to
practice 
a particular entry <BR>or other aspect of my trading.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
