I'm considering moving a large portion of my cash elsewhere, to Fidelity or someplace else that will allow you to earn interest. Obviously this is a huge moneymaker for IB, even if they earn 1/2% on all the customer's combined cash balances that's a huge amount of money. There's a claymore...

Now that IB has been paying zero interest on all USD balances for awhile, has anyone come up with any good ways to earn interest on cash sitting with IB? There's always the carry trade but then you're subject to FX risks. Is there any way to buy a money market fund type vehicle which would...

The first loud noise and they'll all surrender. Damn cheese eating surrender monkeys!

Curious myself, maybe it's interest rates being close to zero?

Sure, let's all go buy the book so we can make you richer. "Covers objectively" is subjective. Maybe you did, maybe you didn't, in your opinion you did, in his you didn't. I should go buy your book to prove you did? I don't know, you can throw the guilt by association thing out there...

It's my understanding (and I could be wrong!) that they were cellmates in prison. Not sure who was the other's bitch though.

Curtis Faith was a turtle, and from his book you can tell he has used system trading before. Covel is a marketer, and as far as anyone can tell has never traded. That doesn't mean his book is bad however, there are many useful books by non-traders. I can recommend Faith's book...

Given the high correlations between the US and other markets, why not just buy US ETFs if they are cheaper?

Another tax question for an LLC. With an LLC you can have a self-employed 401k (also known as an individual 401k) and you can pay yourself guaranteed payments and then put the cash into the 401k to defer taxes on it. You can also then have the LLC make a profit sharing contribution of up to...

No worries, just wanted to make sure you mocked Billy in his footy pajamas correctly next time. :D :D :D

Dude, have a little respect. It's his parents' basement! :D :D P.S. For the record it's laid off not layed off :cool:

Those three will be ...VERY... popular in prison.

So in response to a post saying you brag too much, you brag about how fast you type? :D :D :D Seriously Beau, tone it down a little bit and you'll get more respect. There are traders on this board who make $100K+ every year, but do you see them talking about what wonderful traders they are...

Bragging is Beau's thing. If he spent as much time testing/trading as he spent spouting off about what a wonderful trader he was he'd probably do a lot better. It's tough to trade when you're writing "I'm the best pairs trader ever" posts 24/7.

Little boys everywhere can breathe a sigh of relief.

Guys, cut Beau a break, he is the single best trader ever to trade using Wealthlab. Ever. Ever. Of course that's according to him. Does anyone think the source might be biased? Or maybe just completely clueless? Beau, some serious advice. Good traders do not go around telling...

Your chart proves zippola. You want proof, see my chart below: That said, Bush was a flaming idiot. He f*cked up the war on terror just like he f*cked up pretty much everything else he did, from Katrina to Iraq to the budget to the economy. You could not find a worse manager for...

I'm sure you'd feel the same if your dirt hut was bombed. Many americans don't feel we should be in Iraq, I'm not going to argue that point. Afghanistan on the other hand..... While it is possible they let him go to have a bogeyman out there at the same time Bush could have earned HUGE...

Would you say the US should leave Al Queda alone too? Let's send some diplomats to go negotiate with Bin Ladin. This is the 21st century after all!

If you look up the definition of moderate (the noun form) you get: avoiding extremes of behavior or expression : observing reasonable limits Doesn't seem like your posts have been doing that. Please go back to your Hitler Youth rally and stop posting your drivel here.
