I am sending funding to my new IB account today. I remember reading on here somewhere that cashiers checks from a bank will be treated similarly to wire transfers in that there will not be the 10 day holding period. Can anyone confirm that they actually do this? And also, when creating a...

Any chance of getting the last post time added to each thread on the main "forums" page (http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/) similar to when you click an individual forum? Thanks!

Optional, How do you get the TV "snapshots"?

Bravo! This is one of the best quotes I've seen on here.

Really? I'm not getting any. Maybe they are those ones that aren't related to any site... See this thread: http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10006

It would be interesting to see a photo of your trading room. Will you post one?

Are you buying that much size that placing a market order would adversely effect you, especially since it seems that you're watching your positions?

I don't like any website that pops up a bunch of windows when you try to close it.

Thanks very much for your response. The reason is that I don't like how HTTP-TUNNEL.COM will show up repeatedly in the corporate proxy log. As a consultant there, it would not be good for my future. :) I think I will just bring in my laptop or get a second computer, as vhen suggested...

you are the supposed networking expert judging by your debate with dottom. i surely thought you could come up with a better answer than this.

I am in the process of switching my account to IB, but have found out that TWS does not work behind a corporate firewall without having port 4000 open or running some kind of HTTP-Tunnel. So, I have implemented a solution where I purchased a low-cost ISP and am using my cell phone as a modem...

I would suggest sending a PM to Baron and asking him to add your company name under your user name, similar to Def.

If you have a broad-band connection and are using IE, you should go into tools..internet options. Click the settings button and set your "amount of disk space to use" as low as it will go (usually 1MB). File caching was designed for dial up connections and is unnecessary for fast connections...

One thing to be aware of is my experience with DELL machines is that they put a little extra notch on their own memory that doesn't exist on most generic brands, thus forcing you to buy their memory. Not sure if this applies to your computer or not, but the safest bet would be to actually...

Arch, I agree with you. I do. My only thing about my original post is that I felt this person was misleading the newbie programmer into thinking he could just write VB apps and use them the same way as Notepad or Calc. If the newbie had intentions of giving his apps to his friends or...

Try it again and use the check box that says "apply my decision to all cookies from this website". Then your block or allow choice applies to every subsequent cookie from the domain listed in the popup. Maybe this choice is only in IE 6. I don't know.
