    Observations on the NYSE specialist.

    I think that most people here are relatively new to trading, and don't really know what happens in the market during a period of calamity. During the market crash in 1987 if you owned Nasdaq stocks, you were out of luck if you wanted to get out. Market makers simply pulled all bids, and...

    Didn't have to change them over, different state different companies. I did fill out a change of address form with the Post Office, but that only works for a limited amount of time. The problem is that the casinos only report to the IRS what your winnings are, not your overall losses as...

    Missing money at IB

    Def, I did contact IB via chat just now. One of the most frustrating things possible. In any case, I was told that the money was withdrawn (they don't know where it went, or even the method). The only option available to me was to create a "trouble ticket" which will be investigated.

    All I know, is that I did not request any funds, nor did I receive any e-mail token confirmations of withdrawals, nor did I receive any money.

    Whether or not the numbers are real is irrelevant. What is relevant, is if you think that there are people out there making that kind of money daily, you might trade better yourself. shneed
