Some forums have a way to make a poll for single questions. I saw a good one yesterday somewhere (cant remember where) on how many people have blown their accounts partially or completely.

Your survey, on the other hand looks like something a broker (or wanna be broker) is doing. It doesn't look like something you just made up out of curiosity.

Hey, thanks for your reply. Actually, I and couple friends wanted to figure out what encourages one to trade on a particular platform for long?

As we have a lot of us switching traders, wanted to figure out the reasons for the same...
