    Archiving of IB activity statements

    Since you do use IE, one easy option - besides email, as mentioned above - would be to save the statements "as Web Archive, single file (*.mht)." This is more compact than saving "as Web Page, complete" (in both IE and other browsers). The latter also works, but creates entire folders...

    Hey, no need to be sorry at all. I should've put that in a separate post.

    Hotspot FX

    Agree. That paragraph of mine ("Further, when it comes to all retail and semi-institutional forex platforms...") actually wasn't in response to you at all, but others who seem to read a bit too much into standard forex retail broker agreement language like "counterparty" identification. Were...

    Although I have no first-hand way to judge MBT-Steve's veracity, it would probably be useful for everyone reading this (hey, you too, ssss) to know that he's not (only) a salesman. Long-time denizens of ET know that he is one of the founding co-owners of MB Trading...

    New York Times Objectivity

    You're right... wow. So, they just conveniently replaced Rudy with Ron (assuming that Rudy had been included in that chart before). That makes perfect sense - hey, let's drop the only major contender (other than any notable carpetbaggers) hailing from the Times' own backyard. Wait, I get...

    New York Times Objectivity

    Out of curiosity, I clicked on the OP's link http://politics.nytimes.com/election-guide/2008/results/index.html and Ron Paul is certainly not excluded now: Did NYT add an extra candidate column for Ron Paul to that page since yesterday, or what?

    Maybe because, curiously, signatures still show in PM.

    Garaunteed to freak you out

    What can we conclude from the above? A. "You've just crossed over into the Twilight Zone." B. "You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to... The Outer Limits." C. You read too fast. As pointed out by several previous posters, the mapping...

    CFA: anybody familiar....

    Accounting would be unlikely to qualify as acceptable CFA work experience. Are you asking whether it's worth it to become a CFA charterholder? That depends entirely on your career goals and has been discussed a lot here. Search for "CFA" - titles only - show results as threads.

    How to Raise Capital?

    Yeah, that's one way to "raise capital," if slightly unconventional, with just a touch of self-sacrifice. j40, try this thread instead.

    The Automated Trading Championship 2007 Is Over!

    Interesting thought. Unfortunately for the likes of RBS, GS and RenTec, looks like that would be a losing proposition. The combined participants' equity after Week 9 (with 3 weeks to go) has been published by the organizers. Here's the bottom line as of Dec. 2nd: That's a 34% loss...

    Katie Holmes on David Letterman gaffe

    Nah, the tuft of hair in her mouth look seemed to be styled that way, not random: In fact, that pic was taken after the show. Perhaps a symbol of oral fixation? I've no objection (your honor). A few more, before and during the show: I'm neutral on her face and short...

    The Automated Trading Championship 2007 Is Over!

    Actually, you're both wrong. The winner's neural network-based EA started with $10,000 and, after 12 weeks, ended with $130,475. That's a 13-fold, or 1,205%, return. That's averaging a little over 80% per week, conservatively assuming weekly compounding (rather than actual continual). Done...

    Florida vs California...

    Oh, not to worry... no more rolling blackouts once CA starts requiring those lovely ultra-efficient P.C.T.'s (programmable communicating thermostats). http://www.nytimes.com/2008/01/11/us/11control.html "The conceit in the 1960s show “The Outer Limits” was that outside forces had taken...

    Maria Bartiromo on Jay Leno...

    Really? Somehow, I'm getting this strange craving for milk and Honey, for no reason at all.

    Feedback on Chartered Market Technician(CMT)

    If you don't particularly care about having the 3 letters after your name, why not study the material on your own, saving both time and money in the process? The syllabus and reading list for each CMT level are public, you know.

    Interactivebrokers.com

    Interactive Brokers? Never heard of them. They must be new. Better be careful with newcomers. Especially when it comes to forex, even more especially commission-free species. :p adrian55, IB is only the most-discussed broker on ET, possibly more so than all others combined. They...

    new margin by mgforex

    The new NFA capital requirements rules went into effect as of Dec. 21... forcing such dramatic leverage reductions at MG Forex. As if the lovely full name "Money Garden Forex" weren't enough already to keep you far away...
