Why do you think the ship is sinking? My sense is this is another promotion idea. They have done quite a few over the years...

Kevin you type quicker than me!

Oh and by the way, this guy, is a 10+ year full time trader whose primary platform is TS. Just in case that's relevant to conversation.

I love the platform. To me the promotions seem like it might be out of desperation that's all. I can't see how someone can deposit 500 bucks and have access to something like that without paying anything.

But at the same time, having a backup plan for both the brokerage part and the platform part is always a prudent thing...

Is anyone form outside the US using the tradestation international offer to use tradestation with an interactive brokers (uk) account? I´m still new to the futures game and working my way through Kevins book, but therefore i need data and a plattform feasible for backtesting. (Already been trading stocks and cfd for some time on my IB account.)
My goal is to created automated strategies trading Index and Commodity Futures (minis and micros first).
I would like to know if there are any problems in using the historical data IB provides and if it is enough data that they offer. I would like to use 15 Min in the beginning to get out of the market over night (to keep the risk small).

would love to hear if anybody has any experience on this setup or remarks!
