IB and their genius programmers. With their automated processes you are constantly at risk of one of their systems SNAFU . These guys have the potential to give you a coronary. And CS haS no respect for your time .

There is no limit to people's stupidity

I wish I had a trading partner very good at daytrading so I can just shadow his trades and not stayglued to the screen during the day then I come up with the multi day trades when he's too tired after the close. I have found it's hard to do both, daytrading takes too much time, you lose sense of...

China ? Man, the bubble just imploded. Game over. Chinese stocks were just like the junk sold by China Commodities Two things are certain : 1) it 's been a bubble 2) it's been popped So essentially you are betting on a repeat. Given the cyclicality of commodities that 's...

RIP my Acer Travelmate 5720. The thing just died , we could not resuscitate it. Nothing worked Ubuntu, Win repair, recovery disks. BSOD every time . I got my data back but that's it. HD is wiped out and I am sending it back to Acer. This does not appear to be a virus after all. That...

Well what happens if the customer doesn't want to close his losing positions and can't transfer them either because he finds no other suitable broker that will hold these securities . That could really be the case with IB given all the markets they offer ? Would he have to take a loss because...

I looked at Glarysoft , that's to clean up AFTER I got my PC back together again right ? Me and my friend tried Ubuntu, it didn't work, we can't mount the disk apparently. We tried a bunch of different things to recover the data, it's not over yet, but I don't think I will get my data back...

Has anyone else been given the boot by IB ? Like for example because they were complaining too much ?

I am sorry this guy is essentially a market timer, and basically does the same thing as a HF manager. Otherwise a financial advisor, builds a diversified portfolio that makes no major bet on the future. Thus being that , he should know when risk increases and advise clienst accordingly ...

He's just not a trader, he doesn't know when to get out. He gets in very early and ride the rocky start of the trend with his conviction. But his conviction hurts him sometime when the move ends. That's with all fundamentalists. But Rogers has such a following that his predictions become...

Thanks for posting Rogers has rarely anything interesting to say these days, just pumping his positions and ranting about Bernanke and 30 something in Maserati. But I don't get a chance to watch Alexis Glick over here.

I have doubts about this being a virus problem. I researched this AWToolkit window, there is very little on it. There is a Trojan that was sent by email and PM on a forum it seems , awtoolkit.exe . But I don't see how I could have been infected. It's strange, whenever I THINK I may be...

wILL I lose all my programs with that Acer recovery to factory settings ?

I have got a problem with those stats. There aren't 2 million daytraders on the face of the earth , how did he find them in Taiwan alone ? They used a very loose definition "anyone dabbling in the market on a regular basis". These are not pros or semi-pros. As a whole they are probably a less...

Thanks. So you are really a girl who trades ? Do you know the song "Maria" by Blondie ? I have been listening to it the whole weekend.

what do you do ?

I found a tutorial for it. Thanks. I only used this laptop to go to reputable websites , only trading related these past couple of weeks. I usually never get anything. In 8 years I got 3 (nasty) viruses , the troubleshooting of which I documented here actually. A lot of folks a whole lot more...

I will look into using this Ubuntu program but it sounds complicated. I am tempted to just send it back to Acer but I hate the idea of having of my statements available to people there. What are the risks someone can get my data ? Otherwise I have a friend who is very good at troubleshooting...

I called Acer again. They say I have to use the recovery disks and I will lose all my data. No other option ?

I managed to start the machine by pressing CTRL ALT DEL. Windows doesn't want to load. I tried start win normally last configuration safe mode a blue screen flashes then I get the same screen with the options above . Now if I could only find these recovery disks
