    IB Secure Device

    I have many accounts that do not have security tokens and none have been hijacked. Imagine that. I applaud IB for making them available - but they shouldn't have shoved them down customer's throats. It should have be an option and other security alternatives (which have already been...

    IB Secure Device

    (yawn) I didn't say the device sucks - it does exactly what it is supposed to. Having to use it sucks - it is not convenient for me to keep it with me at all times. Glad to hear that you enjoy yours so much and like the additional security it provides.

    Is Raid 0 worthwhile for day-to-day trading?

    My 2 cents: (1) If your setup is accessing the hard drive frequently enough to affect your trading speed then you need to find out why. A standard trading platform should not accessing the drive frequently and if even if it is it should not be the bottleneck on placing any trade. Get more...

    Question about a DOS command

    Also consider getting a program called pingplotter, it will keep all the recent targets so you can just click on them and the output gives you a lot more information than just ping alone (its like a graphical traceroute tool) http://www.pingplotter.com/ Apparently there is a freeware...

    ECC vs NECC Ram

    "computational accuracy"?!? If you find either ram is not giving you the correct results then you have far bigger problems. Stick with quality RAM, ECC or NON-ECC and you will not have any issues.

    Horrible experience:IB cost me $50,000 this morning

    If this problem has happened in the past (which it must have according to the part I highlighted in bold) then you are responsible for not dealing with it previously. It seems you just ignored it when it happened in the past and this is the first time that you really got burnt by it (when...

    This simple entry not possible at MBTrading?

    Ummm, you *can* do anything with their SDK but I would not use the word "easily". Since they don't give you the source code to their platform, if you want to reproduce their Navigator with the addition of a few custom features that you add you basically have to re-invent the wheel (re-code...

    Theory on why there is no capitulation

    Your premise seems to assume that bots employ mainly counter-trend strategies, that is they are buying when the market is falling. On what basis do you make that claim?

    IB refuses to refund Identity Token deposit fee

    Unless you have direct experience with managing a token system perhaps its you that should shut-up and learn something. Re-registering a token is as easy as de-registering it. It does not become a useless paperweight.

    IB refuses to refund Identity Token deposit fee

    Really? How do you interpret this statement: Why is the device, even after being returned late, an expensive paperweight? It can be re-used.

    IB refuses to refund Identity Token deposit fee

    Are you really claiming that IB doesn't know how to re-register a token that has been received after its been "de-registered"? Oh my.

    Managing Funds for a Living

    Its hard to figure out what is going with your web site graphs because you have the Y axis scaled to zero. I don't know if that is an attempt to hide the fund equity swings (losses) or if it is based on your belief that eventually your fund will hit zero but using only the top 25% of a chart...
