The problem is with people like you, I think.

Those who would, even for a moment, think "how great the nq's were, how safe they were, how wonderful the stops were handled" obviously have their head buried in some orifice.

This is the market, my friend. It is not a fair or friendly place.

My opinion is that anyone who can blow out half their account on a 40pt. move hasn't learned those lessons. There's nothing to get to the bottom of. You over leveraged your position at a point where the market was loaded short, and at high risk of reversal in an explosive manner.

There's no IB issue here. So why not take your whining to a thread where folks are ignorant enough to have pity on you for doing something that might otherwise suggest something quite simple to you?
