    Madoff Victims Want Fed Bailout Too!

    So she invested 100% of her funds with him? What was she planning on living on? Was she writing checks from her Madoff account to pay her bills? She deserves what she gets.

    no interest paid at IB

    It's not like this is the first time either. As socialist as it sounds (and anti free market) I don't think we'll see any real fixes unless the gov't reins in executive compensation. Those guys running these companies have a true incentive to destroy their companies in exchange for their own...

    no interest paid at IB

    After coming across this thread a few weeks ago I forgot about it. Although zero percent interest has been favorable to being invested in the stock market (or most other markets) this year, I don't like my money sitting there waiting for the bank to fail. What about a money market etf...

    CME Down

    Reminds me of the good old days when ECBOT had an outage every other day. Oh how I miss trying to figure out what the f*** was going on. Thanks CME for reminding us how much better GLOBEX is than ECBOT.

    Historical Data Pace Exceeded with IB

    Software to download data from TWS to ASCII files (google either one for more info): jTWSDump IBCollector Other software may exist that does this as well ('tis what Google be for matey!) but these have been mentioned on the IB forums

    InveractiveBrokers filled my market NQ order with 4.5min delay

    I might have asked what happened first, then asked for compensation once they told you their version of how they screwed it up. It does suck, but if you trade long enough you'll have problems like this from time to time. IB certainly has their share of problems but other brokers do as well...

    This woman exposed Madoff long ago

    Given the other posts, I thought this news story would be appreciated by the budding aryan nation clique of ET (which has taken to posting in this thread apparently): http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28269290/

    Refinancing -- these banks should be ashamed

    No question. I'm just saying this is not a new thing. I'm waiting for my 0.25% fed financed loan.

    Refinancing -- these banks should be ashamed

    The screwing of the financially responsible has been going on for decades, this is nothing new. Greenspan and Bernanke are just taking it to new heights

    Refinancing -- these banks should be ashamed

    No way uncle sam gives you a loan. Unless you did something stupid and bought beyond your means uncle sam's message is "no soup for you"

    Refinancing -- these banks should be ashamed

    MSN has a good mortgage lister. Some good deals out there, but still too many rates over 5%. Maybe the fed should just dictate rates. Tell the banks if you want to continue receiving bailout cash, you will make loans at 4%. Oh wait, that's not fair to the banks, we wouldn't want to pinch...

    Refinancing -- these banks should be ashamed

    Maybe the fed should just make mortgages directly available to peons like us. I could use a 0.25% mortgage :D

    Refinancing -- these banks should be ashamed

    I read an article this morning on dropping refi rates so I punched up rates at a few banks. The rates they are charging are absolutely outrageous. Nearly all rates are at 50 year lows (or more) yet mortgage rates from major banks are not???? Of the banks I looked at only Wells Fargo is...

    Historical data with actual composite session close prices

    I'm looking for a data provider with historical data where the close price for the composite series is the actual close price of the composite session. Both Pinnacle Data and Norgate (premiumdata.net) use the pit close as the composite close, so you have all sorts of weird gaps that don't...

    InveractiveBrokers filled my market NQ order with 4.5min delay

    Open a ticket in the account management website. If they don't respond within a day keep updating the ticket until they respond. You might also check the TWS logs (not the audit log but the log files generated by TWS) and see if maybe there was a disconnect of some kind during that time...
