This is an example why I like IB so much. They're really pulling the industry ahead.

What do you mean? With the web-trader you can login from anywhere, you only need the username/password. It has nothing to do with a secure PC. Or can you disable the webtrader for a specific account?

With such a low $ it doesn't say anything that the DOW broke the 12.000 points "boundary" (only that we're in an uptrend). With US companies getting 50% (an estimate) of their profits in other currencies, it is not strange that the DOW rises because the $ profits increase with such a low $...

Just use array functions. There's not 1 thing which you can not solve with them.

I would add one point to your letter: - why not make it possible to use a password of more than 8 characters.

Do you use "normal" or trailing stops?

I have 2 questions about ETFs like QQQQ. 1) How to find out if an ETF like QQQQ pays dividends? 2) How are the costs of maintaining QQQQ passed on to the customer? Thanks in advance.

Probably there are also some interest related effects in NQZ6 which do not occur in QQQQ. Does anyone know if QQQQ pays dividends? And, if so, are the costs of maintaining QQQQ subtracted from the dividend?

The password of an IB account is max. 8 symbols. I find this not very secure. Why not more?

Intel

I would use SSH.

It is simply waiting for YHOO to also come with a add tool. The level of 400 implies growth targets which can only be achieved if nothing goes wrong for the coming 5 years. And you know how much the insiders cashed last year? In the order of 5 billion $. Do you thing Gordon Moore and...

Archipelago still works for the time being..............

It seems like it's gone today already. This is very bad news for a lot of people i guess...

Me too. Some day this stock will go down to the 100 - 200 range (to a market cap like YHOO). To be very honest with you, I don't know when it does. It can be that GOOG goes up to 500 first. I just shorted the stock @ 400 and wait. I know this is not really the professional way of trading...

Not true, the real price of INTC is much lower nowadays compared to 2003. INTC went from ~7 billion to ~5 billion shares and you forget the inflation in the $. So INTC has a much lower value now than in 2003.
