Funny that you guys claim how solid IB is but everyone is making withdrawals to check if rumors are true.

Anyone made a succesful withdraw of >200k this last 2 days from IB?

Anyone has this problem? Its being a pain in the a.. this last days to get a wire delivered on IB on client accounts under FA. I wonder if the financial crunch hits IB as well. I have a wire stuck for about 3 days so far.

too late buddy, calls already expired.

In my casae i was applying for a futures/stocks account, like the IB universal.

Its pretty easy if you have proper ID docs, which is pretty reasonable. If you don't have a proof of address then you can't On MBT to open an account you have to print and sign like 50 pages, that really sucks

They cover for broker failure, no for identity theft or hacking, there are other types of insurance for this, ask you broker if they have some..

Anyone had this problem? I mean it, from FAF to U account or backward during today. I can't make a f...ing transfer, apparently IB made some upgrades on the web and fuck up things bigtime.

I think it may be a good bounce play around 85-87

Amazing the "mood" change. Yesterday everyone was telling that this was the last week for this company. Now its a hottie chick that can be taken over...

I wonder how do you took the money if today was a bank holiday on the US and e-trade didn't make any wire or ach transfer.

Like a couple of guys said MBT has one of the most friendly customer service around, but they have issues with the data on high volume or fast-moving markets, so its good if you have a back-up broker. May be IB-MBT as broker and backup broker (or viceversa) its the best combination for online...

Who knows if the BOJ will jump in like they did a couple of years ago. Besides that i think this pair should be traded very careful. Everything is set to a huge acceleration if the "hedge funds guys" panic and start to unwiding the carry trades exponentially, so, who knows, we can have 300...

Bond market its pricing a "run for the hills" premiuml, so i guess its not a good measure right now. I think the bond market will realize the inflation concern at some point and will sell off hard. So we can have wild moves this year end... Hold on to something...

Brazilian Real made an impressive move this year also.

1. you would made $1000 2. liquid enough 3. That's depend on the time-frame , but it shouldn't be a problem to trade up to 50M if you are not an scalper. 4. If something came up you can get caught on a 70/100 pips move. 40-60 pips if you have a reliable broker.

We've seen many times stocks trading 90% below the "fundamental theoric price" and during many years... So, CFC can go to $3 if she wants even if some guy values it at $40 (or $20).

I think this moves have legs until 97/98, then with everyone thinking on $100 it will fade on his on weight on profit taking and any excuse to sell. Who knows if we are at top levels, im just talking about short-term (2-4 days)

Well, that's why i say "or not" and it may a signal, just that. Im not saying the market its going somewhere or cheering the TA in some way. Its just a comment, something to watch just in case. Im not taking action until we see some action after the 2.15.

Yesterday high on ES (at 1551) was exactly the 61.8% of the entire prior move down, that may be a huge signal (or not). But at least we have some level to take as key for now on. I guess that if we end selling off hard this may mean something.
