    Why TWS in German language?

    I don't know the difference regarding the connection. When I was new to IB last summer I tried the standalone version at work for weeks and it did not function. Tried everything on two different computers. Then one day i tried the web version and it worked instantly.

    Why TWS in German language?

    Definitely not. I tried it several times even on a second computer. Maybe they query the reginal settings or something like that. BTW, I hope my English sounds better than your German (at least it seems you have some basic knowledge?) :D

    How to blow up your account

    Actually when I read your second sentence where you say "He is short on all three" I am wondering why the rest of your post sounds like he is long. Your post doesn't make much sense to me.

    Tax for non US resident

    This is correct in most cases. However it would not be a disadvantage to reveal which foreign country do you have in mind.

    Is it possible to switch IB servers ?

    During installation of the TWS standalone software there is a choice of three IB servers the user wishes to connect to. I always choose the one in Switzerland, because I trade from Europe. So assume I have three installations of TWS on different partitions/ machines with a different selected IB...
