Suggestions? Is there any for Mac as well?

Another TOP call :eek: ?

For the life of me, I cannot find a data box with a cursor to give me OHLC and time for IB charts. Ideas?

Have you done anymore testing going back more? What about 2009?

Any ideas fella's? I found mint.com....free online utility made by quicken that looks like it can log into all the various brokerage accounts and pull all the info in. Would rather have a PC based software (so have not tried mint yet), instead of in a cloud somewhere...but that is basically...

Ok, I am trying to setup either a standalone or web-based software package that can show multiple accounts. My partner has 7 stock accounts we want to be able to bring into one software platform. I remember some web-based services that would actually go log into each account and log-in and pull...

Party of the Dumb...I assume you are talking about the dem's, right? The one's who do not listen to the American people. Dem's, who want to shove and sh*t on the Constitution. i.e.....Obama totally broke all laws with Chrysler and told the bond holder's to take a hike. Fired the GM CEO, has more...

Who is the party of the Dumb?

From what I understand, any owner of the management co. of a CTA/CPO has to be registered with the NFA...even if they are just an equity investor and have nothing to do with the trading side of the business.

SET should apply to all management and performance fees from what I now understand. The manager gets paid to the management company (LLC), and all earnings are subject to SET. I did find this article comparing using an S-Corp over an LLC in order to save some $ on SET. The S-Corp pays the...

He said yep, and get your expenses sky high ;-)

You are correct, just saying, in general, independent traders are self-employed...it's a screwy system ;-) I just emailed a friend of mine who runs a hedge fund (equity only), if he is subject to SET as the manager, will let you know what he says.

It seems to me, then, that independent traders would have to pay SET, and they don't. They are in business for themselves, and the carry on a trade (trading).

You may be right on using an LLC for my LP...I will ask him later this week why we did a C-corp. But, again, the C-corp gets paid nothing, they just sit there owning 1% of the LP. I get paid from my LP. I will add, I do pay a small amount, under $100 in payroll taxes I think from my C-corp...

I have the C-corp in order to have a LP. I am a one man show, and if I have a LP, I need one other partner..thus the C-corp is my other partner. The c-corp gets paid nothing, they own 1% of the LP. I own 99%. I do not pay any taxes on the corporate level (none on LP or C-corp). Yes, I file 3 tax...

My CPA helped me set mine up and let me explain. I manage a LP with another individual, it's his money and he owns 99%. I am the GP (own 1%), since I manage the LP. So, as the GP, I setup my own company to be the GP. I have an LP, in which I have a C-corp as my GP of my LP. It all sounds...

So, management fee and performance fee is subject to SET if you are a CTA and or CPO? I have setup a LP/C-corp for my company, in which, my income flows through to my personal and I pay no SET.

Depends on the structure of your management company, Aaron will know best about CTA...and I would like to know as well.

Hrmm....well, IB lets you charge fees and % of profits for F&F accounts.

Well, if under the a certain amount of clients and assets, you don't need to be registered. 15 or less or what state laws say.
