I just found this last night (11/19/2019): https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=4945&p=tradingrequirements It was surprising to me that cash account annual income requirement is the same as margin accounts. it is a sliding scale based upon age. It is surprising as the broker...

He did trade. He lost something like $350k if I recall correctly.

Hmm, not good to hear. Call them up on the telephone. Plenty of complaints here,so you are not alone: https://topratedfirms.com/brokers/customer/tradestation-review.aspx

Yes, I see your point. I was thinking of ES...

It is clear that he did not enough to cover the overnight margin balance, so he got liquidated. If he doesn't wish to divulge his balance, I don't blame him. Do you wish to reveal your balances?

I like the TS platform. IB is a much better broker, but stingy on futures margins. You can use multiple platforms and data providers with IB.

I would assume you could transfer the balance, minus the transfer fee. if you are set-up with ACH, you could transfer money to your bank, then on to IB and save the transfer fee. ACH is free. P.S. If you don't mind, why are you leaving TS?

IMO the Federal Reserve controls the economy more than Presidents. The Fed raised rates on Ronald Reagan up to 21%, for instance.

Sierra Chart (platform) with CQG (order routing) is a solid choice IMHO. As for "best," that depends on your needs.

WeWork is NOT a new concept. I have seen many of these office suite owners bite the dust.

Your report is old. Here is a link to "Financial Results for 1Q of Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2020." https://www.monexgroup.jp/en/investor/main/0/teaserItems1/0/linkList/02/link/EN_20190726_FinancialResult.pdf Monex has had its ups and downs, but is still around. 'It's tough to make...

TradeStation is owned by Monex, out of Tokyo, Japan - not to be confused with Monex, the metals broker. Currently, TradeStation is Monex's best performing asset. TS earnings are up greatly while Monex Asia and their crypto biz are in the red. (p. 9)...

OptionVue, maybe LiveVol.

Here is a segment John Stossel did on Sweden, as many Americans have an incorrect view of Swedish economics (according to the video).

I was relying on my memory from a book I read recently. It is from the book "Freedom Manifesto" (2012) by Steve Forbes, p. 187. The think tank is Timbro. https://books.google.com/books?id=psNKbDMvG38C&printsec=frontcover&dq=Freedom+Manifesto#v=onepage&q=Freedom Manifesto&f=false Go to page...

What do you know about TS Humble Investor? Inquiring minds want to know. (So do TS account holders.)

I read that, by American standards, 40% of Swedes live in poverty. The source was a Swedish think tank.

it is not "rocket science." https://fortune.com/2019/05/02/fed-interest-rates-income-inequality/ Take a look at the inflated money supply. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/M2

I agree that many people do not save enough for retirement. Madison Ave. has done a great sales job of stimulating over-consumption. How many high schools or colleges teach personal financial management and budgeting? IMO it should be mandatory. There is a retirement and pension crisis...

I remember in 2008-2009, hearing retail analyst Davidovitz talk about just how over-retailed the USA was compared to other top economies in terms of sf/consumer. It is still very over-retailed. I can save a lot of time ordering online and having it delivered to my home. So I personally shop a...
