    Fastest way to fund IB account?

    Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the OP did an ACH pull initiated from the IB side, not an ACH push initiated from the bank side (otherwise his first post about the money not being withdrawn from his bank yet doesn't make sense)

    Fastest way to fund IB account?

    Some financial institutions are able to do ACH next day (e.g. you put in the request before X time today and by tomorrow morning the transfer will be complete). Some other institutions are notoriously slow handling ACH transfers and I suspect they are just enjoying an interest fee loan on...

    Bill Gates creates criminals with Vista

    You can save files in the old format if you need them to be read by non-Office 2007 machines. Also I believe they will have converters for Office 2003/2000 so that those users can convert/read Office 2007 files on the fly (up to the limits of the features that they support) Yes One of the...

    Bill Gates creates criminals with Vista

    According to the article, its only a issue if you change two components at the same time. If you change components one at a time then you do not need to reactivate. You upgraded your video card 5 times in the last 12 months? You need to find something else to do with your spare time.

    Bill Gates creates criminals with Vista

    So much misinformation in this thread http://www.bit-tech.net/news/2006/10/26/Microsoft_clarifies_Vista_activation_to_bit-tech/ "We previously read that Vista could prove to be a nightmare for enthusiasts who upgrade often, with only one transfer to a new machine allowed and with the...

    Frosty's auto-trading bot goes live with REAL money

    How can you tell if a day will be choppy or trendy in advance? Wouldn't being able to predict that be the "holy grail" in and of itself?

    Should I day-trade full-time???

    So how many PM's have you received since your first post asking you for details of what you trade, what you strategy is, etc? Hey wait a second, is that $250k Canadian dollars? No wonder! (j/k)

    Essential Trader Software!

    Yea I understand and that makes no sense. If you are accessing data on the hard drive (either reading or writing) the last thing you want to do is compete for I/O with diskeeper which is trying to move around data on the hard drive at the same time you are read/writing. It makes no sense...

    Essential Trader Software!

    Interesting, I am running the latest version (Diskeeper 2007) and can't imagine the rational for running it while I am actively using my PC, it defies common sense. Disk defragmentation vendors usually employ quite a bit of hyperbole in making the case for a defragmented drive. Most people...

    Don't run disk defragmenters when you are using your PC. Configure them to run on a schedule when the PC is idle (late night/early morning). Even if they dont interfere they are going to make the machine feel sluggish so why do it? Diskeeper is the industry leader (by far)

    Why would a prop firm steal your deposit?

    Its been done and in a big way : CyberRebates.com - a company created during the heady dot-com days that only sold things that were free after rebate. Seemed too good to be true...over time the item's "prices" kept increasing until you were paying some ungodly amount of money up front to...

    Why would a prop firm steal your deposit?

    First of all my post isnt fantasy - you threw out a misleading (and apparently incorrect) statistic and I questioned it. Second, the link you provided only bolsters my suspicions about your numbers - did you even read it? [/B] In case you are reading impaired, if 40% are never redeemed...

    Why would a prop firm steal your deposit?

    Interesting but misleading statistic. What % of purchases that have rebates available never have the rebates submitted? If only 45% of rebates ever get submitted then a 40% pay out rate isnt too bad.
