6/26/09: 10:54 2000 SRS BUY 20.72 STOP 20.62 TGT 20.92 ================= I assume you got stopped out on this 1 -- what would lead you to make that trade?

Hey Don - Are you &/or your brother active @ this year's WSOP? I was in Vegas 6-5 - 6-15 & played WSOP + Binion's & Golden Nugget Tourneys - so-so results. Regards, hlu45

RW - I 'm impressed by your record & especially by the LM trade you made - Congratulations !! I'm also echoing another poster who felt some info on your general methods would be helpful. Is it similar to Bulkowski's inverse dead cat bounce ?

If you throw it on the floor the SPY will crash thru previous low --- lol

zdreg - Perhaps you'll remember that you asked me for info on TOS vs TradeStation some time ago. The ET site is better for contacts & pvt msging that for posting in my opinion. I 1st came here to evaluate brokers - its good for that too regards, hlu45

My recommendation is that you DO NOT use PORTFOLIO MARGIN @ IB. #1 IB has the STREET's worst margin policies to start with & use automation in a way that's least beneficial for the customer. #2 IB doesn't explain how they apply their margin rules & it seems their customer service & trade...

Does Multicharts let you try before you buy? If not any other ideas on how to find strategy development software you can try without big $$ committment ? Thanks

Unfortunately you haven't presented a good example of how IB screws customers -- in this case if you had called the trade desk (and were fortunate enough to get thru in a reasonable amount of time-- unlikely) they would have blown you off -- and they would be right to do so. You can use...

I'm neither + or - on AAPL but here's my take on it: #1 Jobs is due back in June so AAPL is unlikely to make a major counter-market move before then. Will the market bounce from here or make a new low ? I don't know which #2 Re: AAPL vs DELL - I'll take AAPL

What a joke ids response was -- IB treats margin requirements as a license to raid accounts when their well documented "automated margin call software" kicks in. As usual no real answer to a real question on a real issue @ IB

Since this forum seems to be run by an IB employee, I'm hoping for a solution to IB margin call & restricted trading automated rules in TWS which threatens my IB account (PS I've been round & round with IB via phone on this for months). I have a Portfolio Margin Account which has fallen under...

i was impressed by your UAUA analysis - i trade it (primarily via options - short OTM calls) so I'll check in again & share thoughts as appropriate REGARDS

You'll get better answers if your question is more specific; i.e. you name the stock. The payout ratio is important but not #1 factor; just check many bank stocks.

demoship said: YHOO's going to tank on monday, MSFT should go up a couple points. I'd say sell everything. YHOO implied vol is going to stay high for a while, you can probably get a few cents for that call (but you'll have a good profit on the put), your MSFT call should do well, and...

Hello - Doubt it was problem with my ISP - Why? Because I'm running 5 computers all off the identical tek environment & ISP - 4 of the 5 are real-time brokerage-related including the IB --- IB was the only 1 that had a problem There have been many previous reports on ET just like this...

Greetings - I agree it would be great but I know of no reporting -anyone out there know more?
