The thing is who will hold the "style" in case of a merger. Ameritrade and etrade are way too different in the way they handle customers and accounts.

You can have up to 5 acc without to fill with a regulator (ie NFA, SEC) Do you have to make the process again each time you want to open a new account no matter the broker

That's exactly my point. ET shouldn't allow spammers on this thing. I personally don't give a shit what other people think about a broker (like in a trade, the choise must be on your own). I've been in IB, MBT, etrade, ameritrade (former datek) and TS. I currently held my money at IB...

IB its working fine for withdraw, i wired money out yesterday withouot any problem. IB usually its down on some fuction on saturdays for maintenance, you can't make some stuff like internal transfers, wire outs or just open the TWS. This has been always like that, im there since 2002.

and i have to add that the comments are quite exaggerated, the guys who love IB say they're the best, the guys who claim to hate Ib say theres no worst shit out there...

Watch out the ratings on IB on the "rating brokers section": Many comments pro Ib, followed by comments against IB and then another flow of comments defending IB. Are a few spammers cheering up and down on elitetraders? is this thing (ET) losing credibility?

I guess with today's wild moves many forex account went killed today going straight to 0. I keep that in mind each time i feel im not "winning" enough...

I wonder if money is safe at e-trade. I have an small acc there and given the recent fallout of the stock im starting to concern. What do u guys think?

That sucks. I have a buddy who never get the card and its afraid of losing tws login in this day of wild markets. I think IB find a major glith on their system and they freak out huge, switching all their customer to SD in an irrational hurry. Otherwise, it makes nosense the way they're...

You have to call to get a code or something for a couple of days. Stupid system they have, they should have some sort of switch activated by them to "opt-out" until further notice from the customer. After 10-12 years of having the classic user/pass login they become girls that don't want...

Yes, stupid bullish crowd.

Es is -10 from close, its your computer.

Why are you guys so upset about it? Aren't you these traders that react to price accordingly? Who cares if the USD worth shit, anyway, you'll react fast enough to be insanely rich in the "new standar currency" parameters. Besides, every solution for "threatened americans" is go to war...

You can't negotiate with them, as i already tried. THey refer you to the unbundled structure whichs is fine except for the exchange fees Same think happen at TS. Exchanges fees kills you. Even if you're making above 20 or 30k contracts per month on globex.
