For the sake of the poster I hope this post is a joke. First of all, there is no "Omaha HI-LO no limit" and secondly, either No Limit or Limit hold-em, online or otherwise, is anything but elementary. If the original poster is serious, he has no clue.

This is very true. You can tell who the real winning players are after they have been consistent winners for over 10 years. Today's televised events are filled with players who will not be around 10 years from now. Tournaments manufacture superstars, but the majority of them will fall by the...

If you are honest and happy and at least reasonably successful, you'll get a good woman sooner or later. If you lie and deceive, you'll get what you give eventually.

Actually, even if I use a limit order to buy that is way above the market, I don't get filled by them. I almost always use smart routing. When I first started trading with them, I used to be regularly filled by TIMBER and it was convenient. Frankly, my fills are pretty good anyway, but sometimes...

I never get fills by them. I'm guessing you have to be a losing trader to be eligible for fills from them. From their website: What is the Timber Hill Automatic Execution Service for IB customers? Timber Hill provides an automatic execution service for certain eligible IB customer...

I think the market closes at 1 pm EST on Monday, which should effectively make it a holiday as I think trading will be very slow.

Anyone else having an especially slow past few days?

I am happy IB is constantly attempting to improve TWS. Think of how much better TWS is than the vast majority of retail front-ends. This would not be the case if they were afraid to upgrade due to customer complaints. While it is true that there usually are bugs in every upgrade they do, most of...

Hi, Anybody know of a website that lists all the components of the S&P 500 by volume and price and allows you to sort by those criteria? Thanks

Both should be fun. And both often are for the experts in each. Although live poker is more often considered fun than the much less intricate online poker. As a matter of fact, live and online poker are much different games, online being considerably less complex and far drier. The main...

This is a very astute perception. Perhaps the best post in the first 7 pages of this thread (which are all the pages that are here so far). I would add money management (especially in No Limit) to the skills that are applicable to both.

Note that the warranty on these seems problematic. I would suggest going with 4-6 Dells with a 3 year warranty and buying the stand separately.

Actually I was referring to equities. Haven't been looking at options or Futures today.

I agree.

Everything seems to be fine since approx 11 am EST. The first 60-90 minutes was definitely very messed up.

Good chance, but it may just keep falling... and then what will you do? Also, how big a bounce are you looking for and when do you take your profit? Tricky business.

Orders that are definitely executable are not being executed. There is no question about it. It has nothing to do with stale quotes. I have multiple quote sources. There is a big problem with IB today.

Anybody else having this problem today? Orders are just hanging there and not being executed! Theere are executable but nothing is happening to them.

Has anyone been getting auto execution through TMBR this past week or are all your trades routed elsewhere?

Is anybody getting automatic executions through TMBR lately?
