Sig

Hi Sig, any insights into why Dash prime and what other alternatives you'd consider today? I'm looking to consolidate my accounts and worry about the auto liq at IB (esp on the options front), but looking for the best service and rates for a portfolio margin type account. TDA margin is quite extreme unless you just use boxes .

Hi Sig,

I can't find an option to send you a private message. Can you please PM me or how can I contact you? I found you by reading many comments on several topics on here.

Thank you,
Tina

read your post https://www.elitetrader.com/et/threads/interactive-brokers-incorrect-option-margin-requirements.313319/
l am with ib just now and getting what is said to be unfairly abnormal margin treatment. The lack of margin reduction by converting DITM stocks to calls, is an Interactive Brokers issue, it has been said. who have you changed to and what experiences did you have with IB?

For the sake of good order - a quick notification that I have quoted you here just now:

Hey Sig,

I am now trying to limit my exposure risk to IB. I am referring to your comment here: https://tinyurl.com/y2p34vg4

For multiple reasons I am exclusively with IB for now and have well in excess of $500k.

I understand that my account is segregate in the case of bankruptcy. Do you understand things differently? Anything else I could do to lower counterparty risk?

Hi Sig. A brief consult because of your experience: Would you trust your source code to Ninjatrader platform that is saved ONLY in your local PC ? Maybe I'm a little paranoid, but because NT can phone home to verify License, what can't it possible avoid that they can "extract" a copy of my source codes?

Thanks in advance
