    Mac laptop + Dell monitor?

    You can now get "illegal" software that lets you run Mac's latest OS on a straight PC box!

    I wish IB allows us to use thier software on weekends!

    A desperate attempt to sound like Yoda. Note for anyone who is only reading the end of the thread: the demo/demouser option can be used in the weekend.

    Mainboard accepting Fewer RAM Sticks

    Mokwit, If you haven't bought a new board yet could you detail (again, sorry) ALL of the steps you've taken to attempt to resolve this problem?

    It is not easy closing currency positions with Interactive Brokers

    You haven't given enough information for anyone to know what you did wrong. It is actually very easy to close currency positions but you seem to have expanded a position or something. I suggest you use your browser to contact customer service so they can tell you what happened and how to get...

    Mainboard accepting Fewer RAM Sticks

    Once you have tried: - changing bios - removing battery - getting rid of all the cards and connections to "extra bits" - starting with minimum (pref different) ram and its still there then the chances are its physical. Most likely a crack in the cpu to memory path which, when the board...

    Remote Traders to get hit with BIG Internet Access Fees

    Actually its very common in the rest of the world. I think its because so much traffic is international where the bandwidth costs to the ISPs are much more significant. But it doesn't have ANY effect on traders - its about file sharing and video downloading. I have a fairly standard limit...

    Mainboard accepting Fewer RAM Sticks

    1. Exactly what is your motherboard? 2. Have you tried installing an earlier version of the bios? 3. Have you tried changing memory timings and voltages to mem etc?

    Why is it so cool to bash Interactive Brokers?

    Because: - they are the biggest broker for et users - they are not big on customer service (fast, cheap, wide capability but not hand holders) - they keep innovating and there are issues with elements of the service from time to time (but most of the bleating and whinging here is not in that...

    Done with IB, had enough.

    Yes. Anything like that is annoying. How about an international ticket selling company that will only take credit cards from about 5 (northern hemisphere) countries. B'stards. However the deal was so good I got a relative in one of those companies to buy the tickets and wired the money...

    Iraq and Interactive Brokers

    Great post Kicking. To the OP: that is not Racism. It might be nationalism or "country of originism" but it is not race ... ism as Iraqi's are not a race. You could have American grandparents for all they care if your CoO was Iraq. What I wish was that ET would practice Foolism. Or...

    My Experience With Interactive Brokers

    LOL zd, I get bored with the PM's from you every time I call a fool a fool. That's all. I'm out of here. I hope all of you IB customers have a great trading day. And that all of the fools who've left contribute to that largess. Cheers and Good Night :)

    My Experience With Interactive Brokers

    But, zdreg, I am certain that you will (fail to) agree with the correct view: the subtle insults are, as usual, totally justified.

    My Experience With Interactive Brokers

    I think the mods got sick of deleting my posts suggesting an alternative title that suitably denigrated the OP's intelligence. Tums you're right. I had one I found hard to believe and although they couldn't give it to me immediately I left my email address and it was on my pc 30 minutes...

    My Experience With Interactive Brokers

    If your friend had the same stop then it sounds like others might have too. Who gets filled first depends on where you end up in a potentially very ugly queue. So when you get time and sales then remember that. You might want to add Lumber and Palladium to your list of favoured markets.

    My Experience With Interactive Brokers

    Not hostile. Actually very happy. Unlike you. Why? Because I understand how my markets work and how to trade them and you don't. Actually its several years since I last trade currency futures so I guess that makes you wrong in yet another way. I just think that your post proves that you...

    hsi vs n225 futures

    The unbundled yen denom contracts are more expensive. IB was going to look at this a year or so back ... I guess they did and its not changing.

    hsi vs n225 futures

    The mhi is low on volume although it does follow hsi. If you're not ready for hsi don't use mhi as a substitute. SGXNK has great liquidity (not as much as N225M but what has) and is about 25 per tick. STW, SGXNK and SPI all have no lunch break (sgxnk now trades through) so no significant...

    IB TWS 4h Interval Chart

    The nice thing about Sierra Chart is you can arrange for midnight when it suits so that the 4 hour charts start at the correct time. I set midnight to = close of globex so that my daily IB charts start at the same time as my 4 hr charts.

    Where to trade Hang Seng ?

    Actually the search facility with elite trader would give enough information. IB is a good broker, probably the only good choice for HSI currently. I don't recommend HSI for newbies though because they don't do the "lots of customer service" thing very well. Nor do I recommend HSI to...
