    Better Money Management than IB?

    Yes, it is still the same. Apart from the fact that there's no interest for the first 10k, IB calculates interest separately on each balance (per account and per currency). You should note this adverse effect on your interest receviables. Here's what I found:

    IB Customer Service is Poor

    Not most, man. Eg: one question about Lloyd's Insurance Also sometimes it is good to hear more recent responses (eg stability problems at earlier times may have been fixed now).

    IB Suggestions & Improvements

    I still don't understand why the messages have to be truncated if they include a link. I think it is a bit unfair to you. You make very valid and detailed suggestions. However IB truncated all but one suggestion. People are not going to vote for your suggestion if only link is provided...

    IB Customer Service is Poor

    In my viewpoint, it doesn't need to cost much to be courteous or friendly to others. Take your case as an example, if the person had said "So sorry, but people wearing jeans could not get into the club", it would have been much better for both parties. At least it can lower the chance for...

    IB Customer Service is Poor

    If you are willing to hear others' complaints, that's a good thing. As to "IB not for hand-holding", I agree strongly. However are courtesy and hand-holding the same thing? No, I'm afraid. What I'm saying is it is usually good to courteous to most customers (I use "most", not all...

    How about IB IdealPro? http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/accounts/fees/commissionForex.php?ib_entity=llc It is about US$2.57 per million. The min commission is US$2.5. The spread is reasonable. The disadvantage is you have to trade more than US$25,000 per transaction. One thing is...

    IB Suggestions & Improvements

    fleance, You are not alone. I see there are other posts which appears to be truncated. I think the messages are truncated on purpose. It appears posts which have links tend to be very short after first round of review. IB may think that since you have included the contents in another page...

    IB Suggestions & Improvements

    It is 84 suggestions in total (before the first round of review). However I noticed 5 suggestions are being deleted. I have no clue why these suggestions are deleted instead of declined, so only 79 are left. The 2 implementation are not really something. The first one is to raise the limit...

    IB Customer Service is Poor

    Kiwi is an IB loyalist. :) Sometimes people have double standards. On one hand, he keeps complaining the data quality problems and IB adding charting features that bloat TWS. On the other, he doesn't like to hear others pointing out problems about IB. :p He asks other complaintants to go...

    IB Customer Service is Poor

    LOL. That implies we can't simply judge people solely on posts. :D You read too less, or you won't get this wrong impression. At least I have asked questions about stability, margin and account protection. :p

    Do you consistantly make money from Forex Trading?

    Take one step further. Assume the poster are interested on these questions and answer them accordingly. Good answerers do not simply answer the question on its face value. :) For example, Poor question: I'm a newbie. Is it possible to win the trading game? Poor answer: Yes, it is...

    Do you consistantly make money from Forex Trading?

    Forex trading is a harder game due to its unregulated nature and some evil/dirty practices. Try currency futures. Still hard but easier than forex.

    IB Customer Service is Poor

    Yes, sometimes! I don't know if the ticket system is buggy. Sometimes the ticket simply disappear out of the blue. Although I don't use customer service too often, that doesn't imply I don't care about it. I like polite and friendly people. I value them even I don't use it too often...

    IB Customer Service is Poor

    Exactly the same. Kindly reporting the bug/problem, but treat me like a immature child. I find it rude when I get transferred suddenly or end conservations without any prior notice. Does anyone feel the same?
