    Rick Santelli just went off

    They hired people like him because they lost access to the true professionals of the financial media when Fox bought the WSJ. Seriously, WTF does an entertainment reporter ("and it looks like Britney is stopping for her daily Starbucks fix!") know about the Fed. I bet he couldn't tell me how...

    free car and fund your trading account while you drive

    This kinda reminds me of the "Make Money From Home" flyers and classified ads you see all over the place.

    Looks like you lifted his name as their website has a 2003 copyright and you are 2004 :)

    hmm unexpected positions open in IB

    But isn't this the place you go to get info or ask questions before going to your broker? BTW, they don't need to do a CHF or JPY trade to do your crosses.

    Oanda or IB?

    Yes, fast money out, provided initial deposit was in the form of wire. Oanda only returns funds to customer in the form that account deposits were made, i.e. opened with check, ALL funds, initial and profits, returned in form of check. If wires, make request by 2pm and funds are credited back to...

    What do you guys think about adding a calendar to this site

    A calendar with ALL the relevant data for those markets could only be a boon for commodities traders. Sometimes it is hard to ferret out the data and if you can put it all in one easily accessible place, it will only help but also draw more traffic to your site as well.

    new york city real estate price erosion

    I say sell your place to the foreigners with the high currency valuations to prop up those prices. Sell off parts of this country. It's a good way to bring those dollars back home that we send overseas and everyone keeps pissing and moaning about. And then when the dollars rebounds, and it is...

    Interactive Brokers fx NOT 24/7

    I have smilar problems trading NZD pairs using Hotspot as well, so I don't think it is solely an IB issue. I've never really had an occasion to hold an NZD trade that late into the US day as most of my trading in those pairs I do overnight, but I'll ask some people and see if I can get a clear...

    What does "requotes" mean?

    Requote is basically when the price of the underlying pair you want to trade is no longer the price when you submitted your trade ticket. Mostly occurs for market orders but can happen with limits and stops. Most systems allow you to specify a range (+/- couple of pips) which authorize execution...

    cax

    I'm paying at most 30/1MM bcu, not per USD amt. Of course, the volume that you do will give you a leg up to get some lower rates. Like most professional desks, they can be flexible on costs if you have the volume. Even IB gives you cost breaks if the volume is there. Yo just have to work with...
