That is fair. TY.

Was this change on all financially settled commodity contracts? Like QG MCL and others? Hope you do realize that those financially settled contracts do expire earlier phy. contracts. Also extreme prices can happen over other periods than settlement day. It seems IB likes to over-react to...

Anyone can read post #3 that does not answer my question. We do not need any lawyer to understand it. If you do not get anything else to say, just let it to be.

My question is that, has IB changed its policy? If so, when this started? I know the current status now.

That may have explained it..... But are all those financially settled commodity contracts (even MCL) subject to expiry liquidation?

As I said before. I owned QM contact before through expiration and had no problem. I like to know what has changed. Normally QM is a financially settled contract and is not subject to liquidation like CL contract.

QM is not physically settled. I had QM before and if I do not liquidate, the contract stays with my account and gets settled the day after expiration. Then margin goes away. Not sure what is happening now.

I normally do not trade QM much. But I did have one QMF contract. It expires tomorrow 1/19/2022. I always thought that it will be financially settled. But IB just liquidated it (1/18/2022). Is this how IB handles financially settled futures contracts? I normally just roll front contracts...

Ya. The pros take advantage of the day traders. Who gets more money? The MEME stocks are different. Pros do not even like those shorter selling funds. They are in the minority. Most pros like to see those short seller funds burn down.

The entire operation of ARK has a lot of problems. It is never a professional money management. Its past performance is only an one time thing. The portfolio manager is a gambler, not a pro money manager. We've seen people like Cathie Wood so many times. Nothing surprising. She is no...

All those Twitter accounts are fertile ground for market manipulations.

So the smartest man stole most of the money from the crypto "investors"?

Now, what can cause recession if US factories can't even high enough workers? This is not that economy is over-heating. Fed can't crank enough socks from US factories and can't pump enough crude oil or gasoline to lower energy prices.

Not really. If a lot of people have cash in the bank, 0.5% to 1% rate increase does not do a thing. People do not travel, much, do not go to malls, restaurants, bars outdoor activities much. Not a lot people and businesses borrow money now. This will only impact the speculative purchases...

The market is thinking, even with 4 baby steps interest rate increases, real interest rate is still low. There is still plenty money in the market chasing things. The big tech will continue to stay strong since that is the only game in town. No one wants to park $MM money in the bank and...

7% year over year inflation. And stock market is up? Interesting market.

If nurses, airline pilots, school teachers all call out sick, how will schools, airlines, hotels and stores operate? They will have to pay more for temporary help. Some people just quit and seek better paid jobs. What can the Fed do about this?

$81 crude oil price? Slap to the face of Fed. CL price will keep climbing. How much more oil Biden can release? Americans are in big trouble, high wages and high inflation.

Bank analysts clearly see the soft landing from Fed. They do not see that Fed has the guts to bring the fears to the market and cause serious damage to the asset bubble. It is the same way that Chinese authority kept the housing bubble for many years. All political moves. But serious...
