    Tradestation international update, are they together with IB ?

    I'm trying to open an account with TS (not TS international) as a backup to IB. Its an email process that seems to take weeks, I used to have an account with them years ago and it worked just fine. I closed and now I'm having to do all over again, we will see if it works try PAlbino@tradestation.com

    Tks for the comments. A bank account might not be necessary for me, I have asked IB and another US broker in the past about making wires from corporate brokerage accounts to bank or brokerage accounts for different entities but with the SAME NAME(and same beneficial owner).
