The big issue is that it remembers your disk drive configuration (partitions etc). I've got around it in the past by just partitioning the new disk exactly like the old one. But this article gives you a good understanding of the options. http://www.goodells.net/multiboot/partsigs.htm

The trouble, oldtrader, is that in every thread bout ib the fuckwits and the shills arrive.

I've been running Windows Server 2008 in workstation cladding for a couple of weeks and discovered a new level of responsiveness from TWS and other apps. What WS does is leave a lot more in memory than XP or Vista -- When closed TWS's javaw.exe uses 180M of memory instead of 40 or 50M with...

When I go to place an order with 885 it says initial margin 12,162.96 and maintenance 9,733.64 which I believe is correct.

The best price action stuff is either dbphoenix wyckoff interpration or, better in many ways as it gives you entries and exits as well as a very good understanding, "Trend Dynamics."

A perennial question to which the answer remains: only unsatisfactory ones unless you're local.

I'll second increasenow. If you don't like IB helping you manage your risk then please, please go to another broker. Run, don't walk.

Yes, the bulls seem have disappeared. It only seems yesterday when one of them was telling me to f off because I lived in another country and couldn't possibly understand the US housing market. And suggesting that other people just didn't own houses so they wanted it to go down. Funny that...

You don't need to worry about getting my respect. Although I do thank you for repeating my message and jebb's. Perhaps someone else's skull is not so thick that they completely miss the point. :) Your second post after this displays either total ignorance (what a halfwit!) or that you...

You may be as bold as you wish; wrong but bold. Each of IB's customers has the respect from me that they deserve. I have a great deal of respect for Jim and oldtrader .... but you can figure out how much I should have for some of the others. So today we get a run of twits whinging about...

And you sound like a typically anti-ib whinger. Either a shill or some loser who wants to whinge. The name says it all really. I just hope you're not an ib customer because losers like you take up customer service time that they could spend on someone worthwhile.

I downloaded 885.2 a few days back (been running 882 happily but wanted to see what had changed and noted that 885 had a lot of bug fixes for 884). Its running fine. I have reverted to 882 and back to 885 and I get a few extra windows on changing ... but I just close them and it continues...

This is simple. From a customers point of view this is a disadvantage if you need to margin up to the hilt (ie you are undercapitalised or have some strategy that makes you trade like you are). From a customers point of view this is an advantage if you: - are well capitalised - don't...

I have been getting bulletins. I'm on 885.2 with 1.6.0.10b26 on WinXP and 1.6.0.10b27 64bit on Windows Server 2008 64bit. I would advise downloading b27 because there have been a lot of minor bugfixes since we originally discussed moving to 10. You can get the latest updates from...

When IB puts the margins up they are protecting their customers as much as themselves. If a broker goes down because they are stupid about risk then it will take you ages to get that money actively trading for you again - even if their insurance really covers it. Stay careful IB - there...

And to anyone foolish enough to think that insurance substitutes for good risk management by the broker ... stretch your tiny mind a little and imagine how long it will take to get that money trading again even if you get the money back. No firking thank you. Please, would all the low...

Its a while since I've seen a review that put zone alarm free at or near the top. And even the paid version didn't score all that well in recent times. Comodo and Outpost (did I get that right) seemed pretty good but za hasn't been up there for a while. Especially the free version.

Many of their longer term customers would take a position like: "Sooner or later the shit will hit the fan and margin calls will wipe out not only a few stupid customers but more stupid brokers than has recently happened in Australia. Then we will be firken happy that IB is rigorous and...

TinyMenu lets you choose what parts of the menu you want then you customize everything else ... see piccy.

Then you need to either: 1. Set kapersky to ignore the TWS directory (most av's can ignore specific files/directories). 2. Install AVG, Antivir (both free) or Nod32 instead.
