    IB New Acc, 10K min ?????

    I believe he was saying that if the 10k shocks you, since you are a newbie, here's something else.

    Dude, what we are trying to tell you is that LU hasn't traded in over 2 yrs since it was purchased by Alcatel. How did this supposedly accurate detail run list trades on this stock in Jan 2008, then?

    IP address

    Whatever program is trying to connect to the internet on its own should be deleted from your computer. Use taskmanager to see what is running on your computer. If you don't recognize a process, google it and get others input on it. Some items I felt were bots or spys were processes for real...

    How to check if the firm is legit?

    The address of the firm is the same address for VCM and the old HLV. Probably a group within VCM. Do a search here (and google) to see what VCM is all about.

    I.B. for Prime Brokerage?

    I am under the impression from conversations with my sales rep that the line item fee represents each symbol at each price executed at either bot/sld. This could add a $1 fee to EVERY DVP trade (plus fees) to the commish you pay at your away firm.

    Rollover rates better at Gain vs. IB, does anyone care about this?

    What you may "gain" in rates advantage against IB you will lose in trading costs (slippage, spread, so-called stop hunting) 10-fold if you elect to go with Gain/forex.com. Maybe the reason why they supposedly offer those rates is to entice people (like yourself) to deposit monies there knowing...

    IB statements change WTF!!!???

    You can't use Flex-tools to re-arrange the "trades" display area. You only use the "flex-tools" to organize which sections you want to include in your daily/monthly report.

    Fxcm New Ecn Platform

    Not until they resolve the SEC/CFTC debate. Once they come up with the super regulator that we're heading toward, then you will see action. There's still time.

    Fxcm New Ecn Platform

    Combination of net capital requirements and profitability of the division. They didn't feel it was as profitable venture as they hoped especially when their min trade size was reduced to compete with other micro-lot brokers. You can't operate a viable ECN model allowing 1k lots when ECN's clear...

    IB trade above high of bar

    IB does not honor any data feed other than their own. They can't. Think about it. Each data feed has their own liquidity providers and thus have their own quotes. You can't trade off ESignal or another m/t prices on forex and expect IB to honor those prices.
