    Get a generator...

    How much did the battery cost and where did you get it? I just moved into a condo and I don't think they would be too happy with me running my generator from the deck.

    Hedging a corn contract

    If you are fully hedged then higher corn prices would be worse for you. You would have to keep depositing cash for margin and wouldn't get back the difference until you sell your corn. Very good point.

    Soybeans overnight sharp move.

    Over 1% drop right now with high volume in last 15 minutes. I've never seen such a sharp move in the overnight without any breaking news. Anyone hear something?

    IB No Longer Displays Realized FX PnL

    Quit bitching. The message center / account management is working fine. While I have had multiple problems with IB over the past year, they have either fixed the issue or gave me a satisfactory explanation on why they did things a certain way.

    Advantage Futures X_Trader

    Their commissions are very comparable along with their pricing for TT. I would just give them both a call and see what they can do for you.

    Advantage Futures X_Trader

    Just a little update to my thread. I spoke to Crossland for clearing with TT and they said they would be happy to accommodate me and my requested position limits for a much lower deposit. They were more understanding when I explained my situation and told them the variety of products that I...

    Advantage Futures X_Trader

    Yes, they said after they got to know me they would give me 4-1 buying power. I just think that is an awful system using max positions instead of just calculating margin in real time. For people that just trade a few products I'm sure it works fine but for me trading 11+ products at different...

    Advantage Futures X_Trader

    I was going to open an account with Advantage Futures using X_Trader for execution. With X_Trader they set maximum position limits, they don't use the margin requirements by the exchange. Because I trade 11 different products at the same time (not all at once though) I would need to hold...

    CME electronic corporate membership taxes

    I am looking to set up an LLC so I can become a CME ECM-H member. If I elect to be taxed as a sole proprietor my income will still be taxed as unearned income and I will not have to pay self employment taxes correct? If there is anything else tax wise that I should be aware of please tell...

    IB - Booktrader 906 no more single click!

    I am using auto_Confirm_v6_x64 with the latest version of TWS and the single click works fine except under this condition: When I have a position open already in the same futures contract (NGQ1 for example) and I try to place another order (whether it is to close out the open position or not...

    Interactive Brokers Trader Workstation Log-on Problem

    I would just try the updates again and see what happens. I don't think you will have the problem again, but if you do, install the updates 1 at a time and test out TWS between each one to find out which one is the problem. Then just do a system restore to undo the update that caused the problem...

    Interactive Brokers Trader Workstation Log-on Problem

    Have you been able to log into TWS anytime before? If yes, then try a system restore to a time period when you were able to log in.

    IB TWS Build 917 Chart Problem [Username in Window]

    With the 917 release of TWS on 4/26 account numbers are now shown on the chart window on the Windows Taskbar followed by the security’s symbol (ex. U944444 AAPL….) In the previous version of TWS the security’s symbol was the first piece of data shown in the window on the Windows Taskbar...
