Lies, lies and more lies. I've made exactly one post about IB. I simply explained their rationale for raising margins, listed the reasons why OTHERS dislike IB. Now, if you continue with this troll behavior, I'll also report it to Magna.

Opened an account with them in 1998. How much are you willing to wager on it? My bad, 18 years.

Personally, I never come close to using max leverage, however there are traders who might look up margin requirements on an intra-market spread, put in the order and find that it's some multiple of that margin. You can find numerous examples of their capricious margining, this isn't some sort...

Give us the entire rundown of all of their maintenance margins across the entire spectrum of asset classes. Then tell me it's 10% above the exchange mandated one. You seem like the perfect fade on every topic. What a tremendous commodity you are.

Nah, I'll post where I please.

A good deal of nostalgia looking at those old charts. Sorry to hear about the sad news.

It's pretty clear that "they know something"...i.e. this market "transitions" from a low vol to high vol environment in a day (or maybe two), just as this market has reversed sharp sell-offs (Brexit, Trump, Italy referendum) in hours to days. August 19-24, 2015 saw the greatest percentage...

Dak Prescott is the future, no reason to keep Romo around.

Entry price to all of those assets is still important

Just to clarify, are you putting on the BWB's all at once (and targeting a max debit of .40 cents)? I can understand that with the shorter duration, you are paying up for the closer to-the-money strike while your short strike won't bring in as much (or perhaps you are playing these a bit...

Start the music forum...I'd enjoy that more than the Politics forum.

Why not just trade the EMD (midcap 400) that is already on CME.

Derivatives grew during each Presidency, so let's cut the b.s. that this is somehow partisan.

Right back at ya.

In other words, it had BI-partisan support. If you'll agree that both the R's and the D's are/were in favor of the same Wall Street interests we can move on. Even BHO in 2008 talked tough on the topic and essentially did nothing to clean it up. There is no possibility of putting the genie...

I agree with you. It's an issue that doesn't have an (R) or a (D) in front of it as both sides are bought and paid for.

And I wont forget that Goldman and Morgan Stanley conveniently became depositor institutions during the height of the financial crises. In other words, FDIC had some potential problems going forward.

Exactly right. Piezoe loves to present himself as some "centrist", but it's nothing more than a ploy to make these "nuanced" but "verbose" arguments that are heavily biased. On occasion, he will show his "true colors" and drop the pretense.

In other words, you spent a hundred words contradicting your opening statement.

That's why Piezoe is an unabashed fraud. If he truly were a libertarian, he wouldn't put forth so much effort to ALWAYS place the blame on the Republicans. I've watched the video testimony of Greenspan, Rubin and Summers all conspiring to push Brooksley Born out and move forward with their...
