btw make sure everyone knows what PDT is and have the alert turned on
Do you mean the "Pattern day trading protection" under account>day trade settings?
If so, that was automatically set for me but wouldn't help for people to double check :)

Just curious before I signup, as someone who knows nothing about stock, say I get a $20 stock and just wanna get the cash. How much would I actually get in my checking account after fees?

I used someone's referral link from this forum but I don't think I got anything. My referral link also doesn't mention anything about free stocks. :shrug:

If anyone would like some resources on investing and saving, I'd highly recommend http://www.investopedia.com/

You'll probably want to know things like limit orders, etc. in addition to PDT

Robinhood is a great way to learn the basics of stock trading without paying ridiculous fees per trade. This allows you to buy a single stock multiple times in a day if you wanted to without spending $20+. They make money by skimming the interest off your money between deposits and withdrawals, so you have to wait 3 business days each way. You can get Robinhood instant which bypasses this wait time, but please read up on their website before you do.

There are technically fees, but they are required by any broker. Wire transfers work differently too
https://support.robinhood.com/hc/en-us/articles/208650436-Fees-on-Robinhood-



ALSO, the app's charts are not 100% accurate all the time. There is a lag built in to the system so please use another charting app or service. That being said, if you place a limit buy for X.XX and it hits the price (but hasnt changed on robinhood) the order will still go through.

I should also add that most of the money I have in Robinhood is basically gambling money, stuff that wouldn't kill me if I lost it. I'd recommend staying away from penny stocks and 95% of the stuff mentioned on reddit.

My portfolio is basically tech etfs, ...one share of amazon, $T, and 30% moderate to severely volatile gamble stocks
update: my portfolio is now 1/4 amazon, 1/4 ETFs, 1/4 memestocks, 1/8 utilities, and 1/8 misc referral stocks

Here are a list of referral links. whoever's link you use gets a free share of a random stock from a pool
The rate fluctuates between about 2-10% for a stock over $50, 18+% for something between 10-50 (i think), and 80 for something around $10 (it says on the site but the jackpot stocks fluctuate in the app).

Well that sucks. Guess I'll just cash out and close the account.

Robinhood has no fee to buy or sell stocks so if you got a 20 dollar stock you'd get 20 dollars. Also remember you need to use someones referral link to sign up to get the free stock.

Hm, I thought there would be a SEC & FINRA fee?

Yeah... just make sure that the person who's link you use has a valid referral link first though.

This is true. I know both my and YAHU @YAHU links work. If you look through the thread there are other mentions of working referrals you can use.
