    CME Commercial, I don't get it

    This is just a guess, but... I doubt they needed the money. Back when they were non-profits they were member controlled, you can bet that any change is all about benefiting the members, not the public. There are four issues I can think of that could be possibly affected by the change. PR...

    Transfering funds between IB accounts has been made Instant. Can this be done intraday? Could I transfer funds between a futures and stock accounts back and forth depending on what instruments I want to take a position in, or would my daytrading margin be set at the beginning of the day...

    How do you keep your trading log / diary?

    Please explain why these statements are wrong based on what I previously said: Thus, when it comes to size .bmp > .jpg > .gif Simply, .jpg is NOT ONLY for pictures taken with a camera. I already did. Again, for photographic images jpg will produce smaller files than gif. For graphics...
