    U.S. CTA managing UK client accounts?

    I'm not aware of an exception for a USA based CTA, doing business in the USA, but accepting investors from overseas.

    The SSD Endurance Experiment... (they're all dead now)

    I would ever use these for backup. I have a Dropbox account on every computer. Keep all person files except for iTunes there. I do think it's a good idea after you buy a new computer to take an image of the drive that way if you never need to change computers you could just replicate the drive...

    The SSD Endurance Experiment... (they're all dead now)

    I have an SSD drive that is too small. It's around 119 GB after formating. If I buy a larger drive, is there a program that will allow me to image a smaller drive onto a large drive with little time and effort? I don't want to have to reinstall programs. If I have to do that, I might as well...

    Are these market data fees competitive?

    IMO, if you are an active trader, you are often better off paying all your platform fees/MD directly and getting a better commission rate. In general, the firm your are dealing with will have a monthly expense to cover and any package deal will have to be high enough to cover their expenses. If...

    Overnight Option Trading

    Most don't have access yet. BTW, it's new different trading session. You have to enter an order just for that session. It expires before regular trading starts.

    Problems trading futures in IRA accounts at IB?

    TD allows futures. They might have an API but their pricing is not geared toward active traders. If you are an active trader and willing to use a self directed plan, I might be able to help.

    I just got a call from the customer support that told me this morning that the issue is temporary. He told me he now things something else is going and I have to speak to a certain person about it to get clarity. I left him a message. This is not the way to run a business. Sorry for the...
