    I should have listened, IB is indeed a joke.

    Give me a break. The guy at IB didn't say anything about opting out. Actually, I never figured it out at all because I can't log into my account or call anybody. And stop with the account number bs. You can call in to anywhere without your account number. I should know as I was with Schwab...

    I should have listened, IB is indeed a joke.

    How exactly am I a joke? Ok, I opened my account with IB recently. I have had my accounts with Schwab, Datek, Ameritrade, and now IB. All my previous brokers were very accessible. With Ameritrade I just call and give them my user ID. With IB you use your user ID to log on right? So why...

    I should have listened, IB is indeed a joke.

    Your right. The title was written while I was still mad from being locked out of my account. I have been happy with IB so far but I am used to customer service. I was a registered rep with Schwab back in the day and we fell all over ourselfs trying to help the customer. We were always...

    I should have listened, IB is indeed a joke.

    I have a pop email account and all my emails are are at work. I am at home without the account number. So you are saying that you can't call customer service without your account number? I would be willing to bet that every other broker in the country would just ask for your user id and ask...

    I should have listened, IB is indeed a joke.

    Nope, you can't send a chat unless you log into your account mgmt. I can't log in without my access card. Any other ideas?

    Thanks for the replies. I don't even know my account number because I can't log on to get it. I hope they can help me.

    I should have listened, IB is indeed a joke.

    I read every review on IB before I opened an account with them but just ignored the bad customer service reviews. Big mistake. I recently received a confusing email from them that I needed my security card activated by a certain date or it will be activated automatically. I didn't understand...

    Bob Pisani is the biggest dork on CNBC

    I will have to disagree with you on Erin Burnett. She is one of my favorites. Cramer is the person who makes me sick to my stomach. I hit mute as soon as I see his mug.

    Suggested Charting Software

    I have Metastock EOD and the graphics are very good but use http://amibroker.com for intraday charts. It is much more intuitive than Metastock and and you can use most any data source. I use IQfeed. Try Amibroker, it is VERY good imo.

    Cramer calls for the reinstatement of the uptick rule

    I guess Cramer is scrambling to draw attention to himself. What exactly does the uptick rule solve? Shorters must buy their stock back which actually help the longs also, right? Underlying conditions win out anyway. I'll bet the online stock brokerages won't ever let them reinstate the...

    The bull Market is back and here is why

    I was thinking this was the bottom too until I looked at about 100 stock charts after the close. Most of the leading stocks rallied on very low volume. That volume might increase in the next few days but I ain't buyin' it until I see some leaders going up on high volume. We should still...
