MB Trading - Are these guys serious?

Quote from HoundDogOne:

Sure IB has issues... lots of them...
But they are 2007 type issues...
As opposed to the 1987 type issues you described. [/B]

I trade with MB and have been with them for a long time.

thier customer support is second to none. so, don't post about cutomer soupport issues, please. that is like me saying that IB has great customer support (we all know IB is horrible. notoriously!)

wait until you leave IB and go through problems like them 'freezing' your account because of some technical issue wth the retard in the back (no offense to person's with disabilities, just a word I use in my vocabulary).

as far as 2007 issues: Buddie buddie, I would not want to have an advanced markets issue in this day and age. I will take a 1987 type issue any day.

do yourself a favor and leave IB, unless you are the owner (that would be funny, but not surprising).

Really. Buying power is Buying power to you hah? Never mind if it is overnight, real time, or starting morning daytrading buying power. Tells me how much you know about the retail side of things.

What about it steve? I may have signed such an agreement on JUly 2, 2003 as you say. I don't recollect that far back but I must have done so when I initially opened my account with you.

Please don't piss off akeyla, steve. I don't know if you guys are old enough to remember the 1999 or 2000 shooting at the Atlanta Daytrading firm.....what was the name of that firm?...Just give him what he wants.

"Looks like buying power to me" - was simply a reference to the fact that I saw a box that said "buying power." This tells me that MB has that box, not their entire business model as to BP they allow or the Regulators allow.

And, yes, we don't worry about buying power nowadays... but, we sure did when we first started out so I think I actually do understand.

Anyway, I hope you get your concerns addressed and rectified.

All the best,

Don

Harvey Houtkins firm "All-tech" - retail daytrading shop in Atlanta. Had nothing really to do with trading, IMO, a guy just went off, happens in every walk of life...tragic.
