Try to get money back out you deposited by ACH. It's a forty-four business day (that's right, 44) hold! Of course you can just trade opposite soon to expire options positions in your IB and another account until the IB position ends up at zero and you've effectively circumvented their "security"...

Very mature and thoughtful response. Sounds like I touched a nerve. It's just too bad you chose the juvenile response rather than stopping to think about the fallacies you're basing your worldview on. Sad.

You clearly have a lot more experience changing your assertions when they're pointed out as baseless cowhand, that's for sure. A bit ironic that it's fine for you to make up what "lefties" believe but when it hits closer to home you don't seem to like it nearly as much. Would be interested to...

So an hour ago you made the unsubstantiated (and false) statement that "He sends a few bottles of water to the islands and the lefty media goes gaga" Now you say the EXACT OPPOSITE that the "lefties" don't support him now...but go on the make the equally unsubstantiated caricature of the left...

Exactly which "lefty" has gone "gaga" on this announcement? If anything it's being reported as a "Look, Venezuela is sending aid to other countries but won't feed it's own people" story. (BTW, CNN must not be "lefty" media since you linked to their report about how bad the situation is in...

Well you didn't let me down. Let me ask you, just so I can made sure I assess things well: -Is it conceivable to you that a country could spend lavishly in one area while it was poor and impoverished in others? -Was the entire conclusion of your first post on the faulty idea that this concept...

So first off you based your entire view of this subject on the concept that it was inconceivable to you that a country could spend lavishly in one area while it was poor and impoverished in others. Clearly that is not the case, ergo your original logic was faulty. Most people, when faced with an...

I'm sorry but you triggered me with the "mainstreems media" bullshit. Is it really inconceivable to you that a country could simultaneously spend lavish sums on some things while allowing the rest of the country to devolve into extreme poverty and chaos? Have you ever traveled to a dictatorial...

If it makes your life better then by all means believe. Just don't try to legislate to dictate based on "morals" based on your interpretation of that belief. Not saying you do, but that behavior is why so many of us see Christians as evil.

In my experience it was the credit issue who took the loss I assume, so good point. I actually never even communicated with them, just saw the credit overdue on my credit report for companies I'd never worked with under addresses a thousand miles from where I lived and disputed them as well as...

They used to offer a service free to military members where a note was placed in your credit report requiring the potential creditor to call you at the number listed in the report to confirm that you really authorized the credit application. It was pretty much foolproof, although a little bit of...

I haven't ever heard of a trade busted because of fraud on the part of the originator like this, or did you mean "busted" like go to jail vs "busted" like reversed the trade? You bring up a very interesting point though, does the seller of the put options in this case have recourse in civil...

There is microsecond level arbitrage between futures and the underlying stock baskets. Effectively for your purposes neither leads or lags the other.

A couple weeks of ops disruption vs months and months of significantly increased sales doesn't seem like a raging short to me!

I took the article to say "don't count on the Trump admin to do anything about this and they may make it worse", not that they caused it.

Couldn't agree more, that's probably why they hacked Equifax and not Schwab.

I don't mind you saying, although you may get more out of life if you allow for the fact that you may have missed the point if you don't understand something rather than assuming the poster is stupid. It means that following a "successful" trader isn't nearly what it's made out to be. As...

Anyone can do that now, it's called buying shares in a successful mutual fund. But as the prospectus all say, past performance is no guarantee of future results which is true for them or the mythical expert swing trader who doesn't realize that this whole option thing exists. If you had the...

QuickFIX (http://www.quickfixengine.org/) is the standard open source engine, there are a few others and several you can buy as well. It's certainly easier to program in the API especially if you're a basic (especially VB!) programmer, but if you're a proficient C++ dev then QuickFIX is pretty...

And even a newbie can see you're a shill!
