    IB Suggestions & Improvements

    Do away w/ the auto-exit function. For someone who trades various markets there is no real "good time" to have the system exit out .....make it the default function to exit out and if the user wants to override this function make it available. I posted this one a few pages back as well ...

    Is this E-Machine a deal?

    If I know the ad your looking at, I believe the 6100 it is a bit slower although the price as I remember was $100 after rebates. Check out Cnet.com and look at their "Best Buys" you'll find an emachine model that is good for gaming (good graphics capability). I'm on my 2nd emachine now and...

Nice guy.... 430 million...

    Refco Account Security

    My opinion .....mot banks have pulled their lines or cut the line to a level that will almost certainly make it unmanageable for Refco to do biz........not so much of a problem for the Futures side of the business as it is for the FX or Fixed Income where all the margin is provided by the...
