I bought 2 EUR futures and I couldn't do anything because it's showing as 0 position but the order went through. geez.

nice appealin' thread title; expect tons of replies from ib reps.

polpolik · May 11, 2006

im sure they read it but whether they replied to it or not really doesn't help. all they'll say is call tech support which is closed in the US and i'll have to deal with imbeciles on their online chat or call long distance.

So you have a problem requiring real-time assistance, and you come to an internet message board while balking at the phone or IM customer service.

You sound as dumb as they come. No wonder 98% fail.

you're so smart but i think if you actually took your eyes out of your ass and read, I'm merely posting out of frustration.

Did you ever see me ask for assistance?

well, i think u should grow a brain first then worry about making a buck in this market. trust me, having a brain will work out for you in the long run.

so, why did u start this thread in da first place anyways...whinin'[?]

see previous reply

yes, pretty much just whining.

There were threads of IB down again, this service sucks blah blah. Don't you think those guys should be calling the customer service of the broker? EXACTLY.

Bitstream · May 11, 2006

almost all those who were complainin' in da ib down thread [includin' me] recieved assistance; obviously all those startin' ridicolous threads like this went nowhere fast, what a surprise.

Yep, I read your frustrated post. Maybe I got it wrong then. You are just here looking for some friendly compassion from internet strangers for your two-lot trade that you won't resolve by calling customer service. Ok....I feel your pain.

You should worry weather it is pink, red or bordeaux that is what I learned from other threads. ET really is helpfully.

..... I had a lot of bordeaux colours, more than I need.
