MF Global's ER http://www.elitetrader.com/vb/attachment.php?s=&postid=3351439
So, would my 80-to-1 vs 16.5-to-1 calculation be more apples-to-apples then? Trust me, I'm likewise trying to figure this out because I have a...
The fact that you demand a response in the first place is all the more proof that you are self-absorbed. You need to take a breather from...
The 33-to-1 MF ratio comes from dividing aggregate total assets ($45.93B) by total equity ($1.39B). If you do the same to IB the number appears...
If zd had been checking the thread instead of being obsessed with his own posts, he would've seen the issue was already resolved (thanks to Daal,...
Jesus zd. Just drop it already. Try for once to add to the conversation instead of detracting from it by "criticizing" others. Your insistence...

Fortunately, I suppose, I had a very small account here. I feel terrible for all those retail traders (and MFAs, for that matter) that had a big...
I know nothing about forex, but I would think that the .3% daily trading range that China will allow on the CNY will guarantee a huge move vs the...
I just went to the Genesis website to get their list of shortable stocks so I could compare it with IB. Pretty stunning difference! Whereas IB...
Thanks for the input, Farside. Are there no Cybertrader users coming to its defense?!!! :)
But then again, I live in CA, where 50k/yr doesn't get you very far! :)
Thanks for the free advice kent! I just ordered the Green Trader Tax book, so I'll dig a little deeper into the matter. Then I'll probably just...
