Not a good dad or a good role model. What BS!!!

I believe the dollar will get stronger this week.

I'm still short NZD/USD.

I predict that when people start re-evaulating the recent data, including NFP, that the U.S. dollar will become stronger this week. Especially against the NZD, with the NZD dropping down to around 0.5950.

Are you sure it is that cheap from the U.S.? I have long distance blocked on my home phone, so I assumed that I would have to use my cellphone (don't want to use Skype). I can't imagine how high the rate would be to call overseas on my cellphone. Still, I don't think it is right for IB to...

No, my IB issues are still unresolved. I am still with IB because I have some long-term trades going on. Just as soon as I close those trades, I may change brokers. Further, to me, IB is like a person that does not realize his full potential and is self-destructive. I want IB to get better...

I trade mostly futures too, and I thought this timeframe would also be good for futures trading since most futures don't start trading again until 6:30pmCST. Anyhow, being an IB U.S. customer, changing to the Hong Kong server does not work for me either. The 24-hour uptime sounds even better, if...

Kiwi, I'm afraid you are not a very bright person, to say the least. Otherwise, you would know that the reason I know about Interactivebrokers problems, and post about them is because I am a customer and have personally experienced these things. Otherwise, how would I know about these problems...

I second all of the above. Additionally, I would like to see: (6) A trade platform that is thoroughly tested before all releases (7) A 24-hour toll-free customer service phone number that is promptly answered by courteous and knowledgeable staff (8) Ability to speak directly to management...

Look at not just what he says, but how he states it, folks. Either this person is an IB shill or my fairy godmother. :(

"Caliber of person?"... LOL Who are you to judge my character? Perhaps you should look in the mirror, chum - IF you can stand the pain.

I hear they are much better than US office. Too bad it's long distance from the US. Recently, I was trying to resolve a problem by IB's chat in the middle of the night when their rep told me to call. I said US office is closed. He said to call Switzerland. I said no. You expect US customers...

LOL. That's a lie if I ever heard one. You really expect people to believe that?

That makes it a little clearer. Thanks.

Sorry, I don't need any handholding. I do need answers though when there are problems with their TWS trading platform, trade execution problems, or my account balance is incorrect - and this happens occasionally. You are confusing "hand-holding" with "proper service". While someone may not...

Could be, but I don't think this is the problem. Sounds like MTE has the answer, but I don't quite understand it.

I mostly trade futures. I know that you can buy at Ask Price OR sell at Bid Price to open a trade. I'm confused about the price that trades are closed at. I thought that if I was long and had a sell limit order to close the trade that it would execute at the Bid price, but it appears to...

Thanks for opening this discussion. Are you sure about this? It doesn't seem right that trading through an IB(introducing broker), guaranteed or otherwise, would be more secure than trading directly with an FCM, such as Interactivebrokers. An IB(introducing broker) is like an agent or subsidiary...

They can do that because they save so much money on customer service. LOL

Interesting. Thanks for the info.
