IB increased its DARTS from 133K a day in 2005 to 196K a day in 2006

IB increased the number of options contracts traded by its customers by 89% in 2006

the number of customer accounts grew by 27% in 2006

all of these increases occurred over the course of the year

how is it not logical to think that the run rate of revenues and earnings was much higher exiting the year than entering it, or than exiting Q106?

note that even with the option noise they cited in Q107, their margins are similar to those of 2006, so it isn't like it was a major drag on their results
