I had the same problem and I used to use IB's webtrader. Now I turn on my PC at home where I don't have a firewall problem and use free logmein at work to connect to my PC at home and use TWS. Try it and you will love it.:p

That is how I felt after I post one after the other :)

:D I am impressed that you read my posts carefully.:)

Scarf, OK this will be my last response to you. I am all thinking about your question and trying to find a clear response. Now after my last email that I said you are contradicting yourself I believe again that you are not but confused. Here is my last response. In a situation when bid/ask...

Scarf; Sorry. I re-read your first post. Again I think you are contradicting youself!! A bid whaker is a "seller" and based on your first post you are also "selling" at the ask price so bid whacker is a kind of fighting (in competition) with you. But let me know whether my previous response...

Thanks for the response. Can one sum the account balances in his accounts (that belongs to one SSN) to be able to daytrade. Like 27K in one account and 8K in another and still be able to daytrade in that 8K account because actually he has 35K altogether? I guess the answer is negative.

Scarf: Now I think that I know what was your question and if I am right this time, I should say you are right and you were not contradicting yourself in your question but your question looked very basic. Here is what you asked and then I will respond . Lets again assume that the bid and ask...

Either you did not explain well what you meant or I should throw my 15 year trading experience and knowledge out of the window !!

I have an account with IB and I am very happy. Now I want to split my account into two parts. 1- Safe 2- Risky. I want to do this without opening a new account with other broker. My intention is to have some positions in my safe account like 80% of my account and 20% in Risky. I want each...

I did not want to re-response this but I understand that you have difficulty understanding the terminology of the bid whacker. Lets assume that BID and ASK price for a stock is 1.50/1.51. And lets assume that you selling you shares . Lets again assume that bid size is 100 and ask size is also...

Your definition of bid whacking contradicts with what you say. The reason that you have not see bid whacking is the you are the seller. Bid whacking is for the time that you want to kame sure your shares are sold because market is dropping so you know that by the time you put your order, market...

Ultimate desparation. This is supposed to be PALM's hot product. Never ever RIMM or APPL would do this for their top of the line products...

Supper pumed stock by GS to 16.36 today. Closed almost 16 today. Very very fake. They are doing it to make a market for 16 million new shares. PRE is sold by PALM agents for $1 with a 2 year contract with free shipping and free activation on EBay !!. PALM is losing big time on PRE.

Today shorts puked. I call today as the end of the rally and start of a pull-back. Lets see. Something does not feel right.

We will see a string of news like this soon. Like oops we had inflation. oops, GDP was lower,... http://www.marketwatch.com/story/japan-gdp-grew-less-than-expected-in-april-june-2009-09-10

What do u expect? Market be up 5% every week? We will see a 20% fundamental correction in the borad market in the next 30 days.

I don't let my clients go long at these levels.

100% agreed. Specially heavy weight DOW , S&P and NASDAQ stocks. QQQQ is a great short at this level of $41.25
