    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    "The French finance ministry official charged with crafting the transaction-tax bill said it was impossible to impose a levy on CFDs, or on any derivative not related to a territory". This is great. They probably searched a lot and didn't find...

    Horrible Disaster Stories

    Just an obvious one for low level programmers like me. When you use excel speadsheets with IB, just make sure everytime you open it there aren't any active order placement DDE links in it ( especially when your computer froze and you are restarting it ). Nothing worse than placing 250 limit...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    I recently read somewhere the french government didn't understand what the problem was, so I guess they will try to effectively tax it next year. There will perhaps be some trials, and big US ADRs holders have threatened France to drop all their assets. Please note that it's much more defendable...

    1/4% Tax on all stock trades pushed in NY Times today

    It's not just the UK, Sweden who will fight this tooth and nails, it's the whole world... Never a tax with such an extraterritorial reach has been conceived...

    I don't know why but pressure, exemptions, delays are always coming late when it come into force. Look at what is happening with Dodd-Frank, or how the US banks threatened France on ADRs in the last days before deadline... They need to wake up fast on this, this is uber-mess all over the world...
