I think I opened paper account already, while talking to you. It says paper will be available tomorrow.

Thanks for understanding my personal situation. "Equal opportunity" is one of reason for recent US prosperity. Although my first language is not English, I have US degree with SSN and DriverLicense, so that there was no problem to open IB real account online. However my API helper does not...

Thanks loyek. Do I have to call IB for paper account? When I made real account few weeks ago, I never call them. I heard that I should deposit 10K, before opening paper account? How about making two separate paper account, so that my API helper can test to program APIs separately? One for...

May I give more specific question? Below is my current situation. 1) I do not have CAT at this point but why can I place sell order (50 CAT) in 4th line? I remember I had CAT before but it WAS sold. 2) Roughly there is 10K asset with 3.6K of immediately withdrawable cash. How much more...

Is it easy to open a paper account? How long does it take? It cost only a few dollar even if I made an unexpected error in IB. However the error costs 10 dollars in other major broker like Etrade. BTW API training is possible in paper account too? If so, all API working fine in paper...

I should understand and follow their policy. Cheap commission company has comparatively low service. Overall many traders choose IB, for long-term cost. [volpuncture] I feel I post too often recently. Will remember.

I was hoping to say, to save other's time, I prefer to go to IB headquarter myself every Friday. Hopefully no more than ten times of visit to Greenwich, CT. / But it seems that they do NOT offer any staff for me. A second choice is phone talk with IB staff, along with screen connection like...

I do NOT understand why and how you can say stfu.

I do not care server room. Instead of the time-consuming post here in Elite, I hope to see staff in front, for IB questions by a beginner. Roughly speaking every Friday 4PM to 5PM appointed. Probably they do NOT have any staff technician to explain to me, including API.

Here is the view for the ONE SINGLE ROOM above http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/09/nyregion/ubs-may-move-back-to-manhattan-from-stamford.html?_r=0 second out of the three pictures.

IBKR seems to be located in Greenwich, CT as in https://www.google.co.kr/maps/place/Interactive Brokers LLC/@41.019504,-73.646086,16z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x89c29842f490518f:0x9c69e6f16bef5d79 a mile from Greenwich train station, an hour from NYC. ************************ Anyone know the area in...

Dear- We aware that Etrade and Scottrade has numerous branch, so that we can visit with lots of technical question by beginner. However, some broker does NOT allow any trader to visit even their headquarter. How about IBKR? If we visit CT or Chicago headquarter by myself, can we have a talk...

Dear- We all know that we can easily use TeamViewer to connect to screen of other person, if agreed by both. Now, IB beginner like me have lots of technical questions. I wonder if any broker can give me help with TeamViewer screen connection. It is easy to explain beginner question to IB...

Dear- As a beginner, I am learning how to use API for easy order. I wonder if this is possble in IB, manually or API-wise. During 9:30 and 4:00, I like to work without seeing screen except Lunch time. 1) Can I order one day before, like 6PM, for next day order? 2) If so, how many? for...

Is there other alternative security method, such as combination numbers printed? Anyone used it before?

Dear- I heard that I may receive the token device soon. Any experiences are welcomed. 1) If the battery is NOT replaceable, is it roughly 2~3 years of life? 2) Can I ask IB anytime to cancel the device if I do not like it or if it does not work? 3) What if the device does not work while I...

To avoid error, probably better to make program to select BUY/SELL and price. Of course one should pay lots of money and time to write a long code to do that for us.

[loyek] Thanks for the good advice. Appreciated. Sooner or later I make paper account so that my paid API helper will program what I want, by use of the new paper account. He do not have US id and cannot open security brokerage account.

I am a beginner in IB. If numerous trader agree your opinion with no objection, then yours might be usual and fair so that I can follow you.

Here is my suggestion for alternative. Make two screen into one, not by color but by location, something like this. Instead black scree, upper is BLUE and lower is RED. Can we do that?
