"Firms that update all aspects on the account in real-time do not issue these stupid margin calls, whereas firms that wait until the end of the day for some aspects of updating (marked to market) get "confused" by the selling and buying back of a security. "

That's not it. TWE also enforces the rules so that one may buy and sell without regard to the overnight nonsense, and they don't update anything except once a day.

How about this one...some brokers are designated as 'daytrading' firms and others are 'investment' firms and they're treated differently?

Regards,
