I disagree, I've used it for severals months and found it to be quite good for the money. Problem is you need plenty of bandwidth and at least 128 mgs. of memory or it will overload and freeze up where you have to turn off pc and reboot. Try their 30 day free trial.

For sure the 25% margin is going to be Only for $25K+ accounts.:(

I received an email from IB to all account holders yesterday advising yes they are offering 4/1 margin on all $25K+accounts and an advisory on how unfair they thought the new rules are and to vote with your feet and take your business to other venues such as futures, options and offshore. Also I...

Vinnie As Bill Clinton would say" I feel your pain." A top NY or DC law firm would eat up your bankroll in one day on just the filing fee's alone for such a lawsuit. I recommend you give Bonds a try through IB or other futures until December until single stock futures come on board. They going...

Anybody who posts any type of deposit with these firms should realize they only have about a 50/50 chance of getting it back. Almost all of them are Titanic's getting ready to hit an iceberg. You are going to see about 30 to 50 more head for the great trading pit in the sky in the next 6 months...

Those places are nothing more then modern day "bucket shops" that prospered mightily during the 94-99' Bull Market. Anyplace that charges you a lot of fees, desk and screen charges and won't even pay for your Series 7 exam, let alone you paying ticket charges plus having you put up your own...

The Finn First of all read "Reminiscences Of A Stock Operator" by Edwin LeFevre(1926) it is the most important book ever written by far about trading and more importantly about organizing your thought processes. Number Two Don't waste your time in these message board "rooms", all you are...

Oh man, you do need help and I can tell you or the team that is writing these missives is on a railway car going backward. Trading is not about aggression, it's about THINKING. These are no markets to try and be an aggressive power momentum trader, they are the opposite. Go out for a Rugby team...

There are fewer traders left doing less volume. And there are going to be even fewer traders doing even lesser volume in the coming months. Our only hope is single stock futures which will hopefully debut in December. The volume in them could be out of this world. Until then PDT rules are going...

Turok Good point! Linda is actually more of a commodity trader then a stock trader.:cool:

DEF NO KIDDING They want to manage your money, not have you trade your own money! There are probably 75,000 active day and swing traders in the the U.S. alone. When are you guys going to wise up the fluidity of the markets is going to dry up. Single stock futures is our only hope. There will be...

I thought Carly Fiorina was dumb buy not stupid. Hewlett-Packard can't even staighten out their own problems let alone Compaq. What bar are you guys hanging out in?:confused:

Hitman I think you should walk around the corner and fill out an application to go to work for Goldman Sachs or Bear Stearns. Maybe they could put you on a sell side desk,(they never put newbies on a buy side desk). OR go over to the World Trade Center or Chicago and lease a seat on one of the...

WAR EAGLE What type of suspension do you think the NCAA is going to hand down to BAMA?:(

Give Me A Break Anyone that trades 6,000,000 shares a month (272,000 per day) knows where to cut deals. More and more of these threads are just setups where you can flog Worldco, Echotrader and the like. I was born at night but not last night.:cool:

MICHAELDAY AMEN AMEN This guy (Hitman) is just tearing his guts out over this crap. The Big Money Is made in the Big Leveraged Move. I think he needs to give Crude Oil, Bond, Currency, Sugar futures a go. The era of the intraday stock move for .18 cents is coming to an end. These new rules are...

If you don't have at least $25,000.00 in your account, with the new rules any money spent for any type of active trading lessons is a waste. Your time will be better spent at antique shows.:mad:

Akhuto The bottom line on the 3 day rule is they want to operate on your money not you operate on your money for the three day period. I'm glad some of you posters are waking up to the gravity of the screwing you are about to recieve. When they freeze your browser and tell you of your violation...

I suggest all of the posters read a book by George Soros entitled "The Alchemy of Finance", particularly Roger Ferguson of the Fed. This is tantamount to blaming the clerk at the 7/11 store who was shot and killed during a stickup attempt. Markets nor people can be totally efficient or...
