    WHAT is the main reason to use interactive brokers?

    Why do you need customer support? Rarely TWS data feed goes away. Just wait and check out Elite Trader. You would see many tarders have the same problem. Don't call them. It will be fixed soon. I had an account with them since 2003 and I have been happy. I had accounts with 10 other brokers and...

    IB questions. Warning on shorting?

    I am 100% sure IB does not match your short with your cover. IB does not even have two different terminologies for short and sell. It is only sell. For cover and buy IB uses only buy. Try to get to used to it and believe me it is much better. Some brokers if you don't mention that you are...

    Can I do this in IB?

    It won't work. I want to have separate performances for each lets call them "sub_accounts". The way that you are saying just lists the stocks or options in separate pages and once you trade them, they go to your portfolio page. Lets assume that I have 100K in my total account and I have 90K in...

    VG just started to pop up again

    I don't have that many shares. Only 5K. I will keep it (for ever?!!) if it goes below my entery point ($1.55). I use their service and I believe it is fantastic. Look at VG valuations vs. PALM. They are not in the same business but... You get my point.

    UNG tracks perfectly on the way down, but now?

    Because when NG went down to $2.5, UNG did not go down that much. NAV vs IV difference was like 25% that time. Also contago loss is another reason.

    VG just started to pop up again

    It seems that I was right in my prediction. Their smartphone app is out. For Iphone and BlackBerry. Which one of your investment is up 20% in a week? It will hit $5 in a month. 2 Q profitable, known brand, massive increase in subscriptions, Next Q is in November.

    Can I do this in IB?

    Exactly. I want to separate my risky and non risky parts of trades apart and I also want to get liquidated in my risky account and I don't want to use my non-risky porttion of my account as a collateral. It is difficult to do this in your mind. You should be very disciplined. Now that I see...

    Market is stretched and exhausted who agrees?

    I know that and it has become my pet peeves. I never said market will go down or go higher. I have recently seen market is exhausted (last two weeks) and I believe is not a good time to buy. But maybe not a good to sell either. Just trade.

    Market is stretched and exhausted who agrees?

    I feel a lack of direction in the market that will eventually results in a sell off. It does not go up and the same time some buyers find it a buying opportunity when it dips. I believe market will be range bounded for a short while.
