I'm thinking that trades should be at minimum 500 bucks, otherwise even $9 commissions are too high of a percentage.

I mean, hell, by the time you make a trade of say 200 bucks .. 20 in commissions is 10% ... no one can do that great if they're beat 10% from the start!! If you have to beat that and the spread, fuck, just it's almost impossible.
