06 · Questions

Straight answers.

Is Greenwick really free?
The lessons, broker reviews and market clock are free, with no account needed. The only paid product is the journal ($49.99 once). Greenwick also earns a referral fee if you open an account through some broker links, at no cost to you. Affiliate disclosure
How much money do I need to start?
There's no fixed number. FINRA removed the $25,000 pattern day trader minimum, effective June 4, 2026, but brokers have until October 20, 2027 to switch over, so check your broker's current rules. In a cash account you can only trade with settled cash. Practice in a simulator first, then start small. Accounts and rules
Which broker should I choose?
It depends on where you live, your account size and whether you plan to short. Start with the three picks above, or filter all 18 on the broker comparison page, then read the full review before you open an account.
Can I trade US stocks from outside the US?
Many traders do, through brokers that accept international clients. Which brokers accept you depends on your country, so check before you apply. Compare brokers
Why are small caps so risky?
They're low-priced stocks that can move a lot in minutes, in both directions, often on news, and they can halt. Most people who try day trading lose money, which is why the course starts with risk and practice. Risk management
Do you sell signals or alerts?
No. Greenwick teaches you to find and review your own trades. If anyone promises guaranteed returns, walk away. Spotting scams
