Last comment: I disagree that he "wasn't really bitching" or complaning that "the Street" designed SSFs to take advantage of incompetent traders. I think he was. Read his post. Case closed. He thinks he's a victim! :p And I agree that ET is a place to commiserate with others. But it does...

nevertheless whiners like you are funny, indeed. And b.t.w I disagree that your "purpose" is selfless... i.e., to "assist". Rather, it's to b*tch and moan about something that you are responsible for, not others... ! I love guys who blame things on MMs or "the Street" or a broker like...

don't you think you should have learned about the price relationship between SSFs and the underlying (ala options) BEFORE you entered a position?! Just wondering if (as a trader) you took some (any) reasponsibility for this so-called "debacle"? Regards, ICe :cool: p.s. Who or what...

Ditto! Period!! AMEN!!! As far as I'm concerned any profitable trader for the year... ought to turrn over a small % of said profits to IB's Holiday Fund as thanks for a great year, for charging fair & professional commissions for off-floor retail traders and as a token of our goodwill...

it is beyond comprehension to me, and likely many others who have been around for a long time back into the early 80's..... how ANYONE can complain about IB. I love these guys although I do not trade very large size as addressed in the original poster's altruistic "complaint"; and I trade a lot...

If the time that you are trading does not necessarily dictate the size you trade... that explains why so many wunderkinds experience, sooner than they desire, the old adage about 15 minutes of fame. b.t.w. anyone get in on the last 30 or so minutes today!!! Got long SPX ITM calls... near lows...

We're all curious since you purport to be a seasoned veteran trader... weren't you>> last year sometime<< looking around (and asking here on ET) for recomendations for a website whereon you could learn trading, and also submitting other posts seemingly showing you were brand new at this...

no offense bro.... but I never much liked guys who count their cards while sitting at the table. Didn't the SPX close UP today? I don't now what is going to happen next, but I do know that all your posting on this and another thread about all the short ES you allegedly had overnight.... was not...

long October/short November... October is spread... and credit spreads on October (now >OTM) puts ! There is a gap on NDX chart.... will it attempt to fill? B.T.W for all us mere mortals (unlike the originator of this thread), thought he (Romeo) said SPX would not see north of 1032...

why would you care whether others reply or engage in a discussion... if you got a good gig... then ride it yourself, and profit from it and then look around you... there are plenty of other places to do good deeds, and contribute to the world, oustide ET! Write a book or an article, etc.etc...

that sounds like the biggest bunch of unsupported garbage I have read recently... is this you, "Jack", again.... with more psycho verbiage!?? ICe :cool
