    Anyone else issues with data box?

    I'm not sure what they changed, but the data box that used to pop up when I hovered over a bar on a chart now seems to sometimes work and sometimes not. Often if I move slowly over a bar I can get it to show at a specific point, but that is a headache and not what I want to be doing. Other times...

    Man's Best Friend Thread.

    What Baron said! It may sound stupid, but I keep thinking it's walk time or looking over to the chair in my office where the goofball slept while I worked. It's time for another big goofball for us.

    Man's Best Friend Thread.

    Crap, just starting the process of looking for a new best buddy and I realize we lucked out on our first two Goldens. The first guy we got after he failed the last test for becoming a living assistance dog, and we just made a $200 donation to the training place. The 2nd I happened upon online...

    Who else hates the hot weather?

    I enjoy heat without the humidity, but it's usually in combination here in Wisconsin. Beautiful here this weekend, 60's, which I could live with year round.

    Any Pilots here?

    Would not have thought a 177 was roomier than a 182, but most of my time in a 182 was flying jumpers, so seats out but mine. I was checked out in a 182 with seats and it sure felt spacious, but I only flew a 177 twice I think.

    Any Pilots here?

    I have all the ratings, but haven't flown in about 20 years now. I hit the industry at one of the crap times, excuse me, one of the zillion crap times. Also, the wife kept going back to school and we had kids, so the budget was getting pounded. I am in the process of getting back to flying as...

    When logging in through TWS or Apps Market data and trading disabled

    That is what the warning is about. Curiously I have always gone to my account via the TWS platform to download the previous days statements, but that message never appeared before yesterday. Had me worried that I had been hacked, but all is well. Thanks for the input.

    When logging in through TWS or Apps Market data and trading disabled

    Was able to talk to someone via the phone. They don't know why the message started showing up, but my account seems to be running and permissioned. If I log into the account via a browser after first closing TWS I don't have the message, but if I open the account home page through TWS the...

    When logging in through TWS or Apps Market data and trading disabled

    What the heck is this message? I'm waiting for chat at the moment, but thought I'd see if anyone here sees this message. TWS seems to be open and running, but not sure as I read this message.

    Data farm disconnect- daily

    Anyone else experience a disconnect during the day every day? Around 1149-1151 CST every day I see a disconnect. Usually the jfarm, hfarm or us farm show up as disconnected and come back fairly quickly, but kind of annoying.

    Home owner's policy is a joke

    I managed to total a car and a motorcycle and the insurance was great. Two different companies and in both cases they paid more than I expected for the value by a fair amount. On the other hand we had the wind pull siding off one side of our house and the insurance company appraiser gave a b.s...

    Alex Berenson says worldwide COVID outbreak has so far only been 'slightly worse than a bad flu year

    I can say that last 2 weeks in the hospital my wife and son work at that the ICU was just shy of full and it was directly attributable to people who had a positive Covid test. At the same time previous to this they never filled up, including during the initial panic. We opened up and the cases...

    Insane margin requirement for long put

    Then the margin is in relation to the short calls not the long puts.

    I'm assuming IB since he is posting in their forum.

    Insane margin requirement for long put

    I guess I haven't been trading in options enough these days, as I didn't think there was an option requirement for long options. Maybe other than the cost of the options and you are buying them with margin.

    Any of you guys using a Statin ?

    Yep, atorvastatin, i.e.. Lipitor, however I have cut back to taking it just 5 days a week. While doing this I've had good numbers for my last 2 checks. roughly a year apart. Over the past few years I have worked on changing my diet and I believe that has helped. For the next month or two I'm...

    Anyone tear a rotator cuff?

    That is what I am hoping for when I go in for the consult. My son who works with the doctor I am seeing says that they normally go with the robot which is the minimally invasive option. He also chewed me a new one when he stopped by and caught me working out last night.

    Anyone tear a rotator cuff?

    Had a physical today and the doc said she thinks it was slightly dislocated, I forget the term she used, but to take it easy on it for awhile. Unfortunately I do have an inguinal hernia. This getting old stuff is really starting to suck!

    Owning a Dog Can Add 10 Years to Your Life

    Yep, that ticks me off. I've started the process of looking again. We lucked out on our two Goldens. The first failed his last living assisted test and we just gave a donation to the facility for him, and Joshua was only $500 from a small breeder who has closed her business. I could go to the...
