End result of the whole fiasco was they didn't iron out the issue for a week, at which point I was up $2500 in a phantom open position I couldn't...
At that price it's priced comparable to Multicharts (if you buy on sale or pay monthly). Seems crazy to pay that for an unproven product versus...
I would guess there was also a real-time data package included in his setup, hence the $80 extra per month.
My broker apparently had a system problem yesterday and failed to allocate a trade to my account during the day (trades were entered by an...
I was forced to switch from IB due to a new employer and preclearance restrictions (I can't use IB easily because they allow stock trading -- I...
Another option is buying Multicharts and running the same easylanguage systems with IB integration. Note Multicharts does not work exactly the...

I have not tried to document it but the margins were different overnight as of last month -- it may have changed and we all know they won't say a...
If it's $13.75 and a $1000 multiplier and you're buying one contract if we assume VIX can't go below zero the max loss would be 1/3 of the margin....
I've been seeing the margins since April. Note at around 350 pm day trading margins end.
