Stan MultiCharts, Does IB offer the use choice of the non .NET version of MultiCharts as an option for integration with IB's TWS?

I have used "your number 3" method for several years and it works well. However, for me, trading futures has been the best and easiest solution with the 60/40 tax reporting advantage and single number profit/loss 1099-B.

This is often the result of the late revised qualified/unqualified dividends and capital gains distribution reported to brokers. Congress and the IRS are the ones that need to fix this late reporting problem for US tax payers.

Good to know they will return when you can work them into the ET upgrade. They have been very helpful for years.

Baron, Will there be a return of the broker ratings and reviews to ET?

I can see IB writing their own charting program but not buying Multicharts.

My opinion is IB is the best broker. The number of broker reviews here on Elite Trader tells you IB has many users here on ET. The rest of your questions can be answered by searching through IB's website.

A year or two back I was looking for a MB with 6 or more PCie16x slots and found what I was looking for in I think a Gigabyte for the AMD processor that the overclocks and gamers were real hot on. I did not follow through with my plans to do the updated PC build and left that for the future. MSI...

Maybe the problem is with the choice of a ASUS motherboard. I have purchased several ASUS motherboards in the past and have never been able to get one to work right when all six slots were filled. Pulling out the ASUS motherboards and installing a MSI motherboard worked well with all 6 slots...

I have been running 12 monitors on one PC for about the last 13 years (first with win 98 and currently win 2000). I have upgraded the PC several times during the 13 years and it still does what I need. I can run 2 charting program, connect to 3 or 4 broker trading platforms, and run an...

Thank you for your reply. I added elitetrader.com to my always allow cookies list and still I have no classic ET link.

No "Classic ET" link on my screen.

That sounds good as the new colors are hard for me to read.

himself, For QuoteTracker, I use IB for futures data and TDAT margin account for stocks data. I like IB for futures trading.

USA politicians like to pound on their chest, show their teeth, and strut like a rooster but cowardly pick on only those they think are weak. But with as much trouble as the USA has had with the weaker countries, the USA will likely loose if they have to go up against the likes of China or...

All governments are corrupt from the skin to the core.

My "Holiday Schedule" shows New Years day for 2013 as the last holiday. I have not noticed any problems with data or charts not looking correct. Do I need to be adding holidays for 2013 to the "Holiday Schedule" or can I just forget about the "Holiday Schedule" omissions?

Those are the only two that I know about. I have looked for this feature in any broker I have considered for several years. TDAT has check writing from the cash balance of the sweep account. I wish Interactive Brokers would add some form of check writing even if their are significant limiting...

No, MBT emailed me that the client will have a stock and options account at MBT/Apex and a seperate futures account at Knight. To move funds from the MBT/Apex account to the Knight account, MBT/Apex client will have to make a request through MBT and MBT will charge a $15 wire transfer fee. The...

Correct, MBT/Penson moved the money back and forth daily between a unseen futures account and the clients universal account. Worked nicely and hand check writing privileges on the universal account.
