Portfolio Margin out of the question due to lack of credit history

Quote from trader5454:

I just checked with interactive brokers - they said that there is no credit history and no net worth check. Income needs to be above $40,000. So basically if you meet the Reg-T requirements you meet the IB requirement. Just need to have $110,000 for account.

This is a bit off-topic for the thread - but is there anyway to make IB's interface more like ToS. I demoed IB a couple years ago and just hated the interface.

TOS is a much better tool for option trading. TWS can be very frustrating, however the trade off is lower commission at IB.
