Speaking of which, can one trust a broker who is married to a travel agent?

Lol, escape artist.

My wife is a minister (she performs weddings) and she is a travel agent. That way she can marry you and then book your honeymoon.

I would get out. And refrain from trading big to make back losses. Learn to trade and trade sim or very small first until you are consistent. The most important think to do before you get in a trade is to define your risk.
