Legal Question in Bankruptcy in Virginia

I lost my job at the end of 2008. I borrowed money from my credit cards to set up a brokerage account, and did daytrading to try to sustain myself. I made some money, but not enough to support myself. As a result, I had to dip into the brokerage account to pay my personal expenses. Now I am considering filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy. I'm strapped. Before I file, can I withdraw any further money from the brokerage account to use to pay my bills, or would that cause problems?

Thanks for your assistance.
