Just how much did you lose on UAUA?

I'm using TWS and no volume is displayed for any of my IDEALPRO pairs. I use Metatrader for charting from a different data source that does include volume.

Seconded!

I got this once from thumping my desk with my laptop on it.

What hours do you trade? The middle of the Aussie night?

Yeah they may be hot, but they're all miserable cows.

LOL.. I won a SF2 competition in 1992, even beat an Asian guy in the final.. Still the greatest day of my life :) (not what I tell the wife obviously) SONIC BOOM!

Sounds like you're spread betting? QM contract on a real broker is about £2.60 a tick, with much smaller spread. Good luck to you.

Be careful of overconfidence, I had a great run early in my trading with a small account and thought it would go on forever, it didn't.

I know you don't want to hear this but.. I have a good friend who works in the corporate credit section of JP Morgan and he told me last week that MER are in deep do-do and to short the hell out of them.. Sorry..

You called it :)

Try This: In your account window, expand your FX portfolio, right click the position and adjust position size to zero. That should get rid of any PNL. Obviously your net liquidation value in your base currency will still fluctuate with movements in the Euro.

According to the latest "The Sun" magazine I was perusing at my local supermarket today, Nostradamus predicted that Bush would veto any laws curtailing oil speculation, so don't worry bulls!

I agree 100% Oh and OldTrader not all of us want to be "old" traders.

And well below its Jan and March highs, your point is? Anyway Vix shmix, I daytrade ES and price action looks the same to me, all I know is that from trading 3 lots I'll be back to 1. Maybe big swinging dicks with $100k accounts don't care but its shafted us little folk.

I really hope so, this will mess up all my trading goals and budget for the year.

So we will need $4500 for each ES contract traded? That's ridiculous, market is no more volatile than it has been for the last 12 months.. Thanks a fucking lot IB.

What happens if Fannie is nationalised? Does that make all privately owned stock worthless?

LOL.. Whoever you are, nice one :)

I've had problems with IB before, I feel for you man. I've given my wife all my IB account details so she'll be able to wire out the money in case of my untimely demise. Good luck..
