    Is Interactive Brokers safe?

    cheapest way to get 30/60 minutes intraday data with splts and dividends?

    Just make it up, that's free. Then again if you want it to be accurate, there are multiple options: ESignal Fidelity (get a free 30 day trail of Wealthlab pro and get the data that way) Tradestation (cheap for brokerage customers) IB (free for customers, you can roll your own with the API...

    Is Interactive Brokers safe?

    As far as I know IB has not been selling (and buying) POS mortgage related "securities/turds" like LEH so this is not an apples to apples comparison. That said of course if Lehman and Bear could go under, anyone could (except Goldman).

    Is Interactive Brokers safe?

    Dude nothing is truly safe unless you take your money and stuff it in a mattress. And then once the gov't is done even your cash will be worthless (OK technically not worthless but when it costs $10 million to buy a loaf of bread it's pretty close). Your "safest" bet is to spread the money...

    Taxes on high-income earners would rise by nearly $1 trillion

    No, they are just bought and paid for by a different group than the GOP. Not really any difference other than who's writing the checks. None of them give two shits about the country, all they care about is themselves and getting re-elected. The dems are a bunch of idiots but I don't...

    In retrospect, was there inside information about 9/11 and the stockmarket?

    Yes but as has been noted elsewhere this doesn't necessarily mean anything sinister. Someone noted large increases in put open interest in airline stocks, but that could have just as easily been a bullish bet (selling puts) as a bearish bet. Not that I trust the SEC to investigate it though....

    In retrospect, was there inside information about 9/11 and the stockmarket?

    Yes, I second this, please do not let facts get in the way of this looney discussion and conspiracy theory nonsense. If you use facts to make a point on ET you are in fact violating the terms of use.

    Can Tradestation 2000i easylanguage call a dll written in C#?

    I cannot speak to TS 2000i but newer versions of TS have the ability to send emails for each trade alert. I vaguely remember hearing this feature also exists in TS 2000i as well. These programs run their own SMTP server which then takes the alerts and converts them to actual trades with a...

    Can Tradestation 2000i easylanguage call a dll written in C#?

    Have you looked into catching the emails from TS and turning them into orders? There are quite a few products that do this.
