It is really crazy. JPY-based products like NIKKEI 225 charged such a weird commission plan. I don't understand why it takes sooooo long for them to fix that. What they need to do is to change the parameters. It should be very easy. Why do they need to maintain such an unfair plan? This only...

Hey! I don't quite understand. What's the purpose of the 5-second bar datafeed? It seems it is to handle what is missed from the snapshot-basd datafeed. As far as I understand, it will try to adjust/correct the highs/lows only of the bars, but nothing more. A few questions: 1) Does it...

Where can I know the performance of different new stock on the first day (open and close)? Is it normal that a new stock will gap up on the first day?

Go to Interactives Brokers website. Watch the news announcement on the front page.

Thanks so much for your answers. I have some questions. Even if outside the range?? IB has set a projected range for its share, that is $23-27. What if the bidding result turns out to be outside the range (eg $21, or $29)? At what price should we pay? What's the point of setting...

Too bad that they changed the commission scheme (raised money). :( Actually where can I receive news regarding recent changes of their fee/commission plans? PS: I couldn't see they mention this on News at IB. So cunning!! :mad...

Thank you.

Do you guys know if there are any good books or materials which talk about volume (eg how price and volume interact, how volume predicts price movement, and so on)? No basic or introductory text . I need something more advanced. Thanks. :)

May I ask why US government wishes to make such a DST change? Would it be better if the whole concept of DST is abandoned completely? No DST forever - what do you think?

What is this? What does it do? I can't find any info about it in the page.

Probably. The public are always wrong. :D

IB has some weird interest charges too. They apply different interest rates for different tiers of money. :(

That is not true. For the first USD 10,000 ============== No interest at all For the second USD 10,000 - 100,000 ===== 4.8% (BM - 0.5%) Over USD 100,000 =================== 5.05% (BM - 0.25%) Different amount of money charge different interest rates which is very tricky. :mad...

There IS a monthly activity fee. Where did you get such info from? Monthly Activity Fee Minimums IB caters to professional traders and investors and requires its customers to spend a monthly activity fee minimum which may include commissions, market data fees, and other fees. Those customers...
