3rd message for non-subscriber, so I'm short on replies tonight. (that's me, LEECH!) I left a message in the Cybertrader forum that probably explains it in pretty good detail. Basically, the answers I have heard from Block a) bad management by the sub-contractor (Gatling), b) no high volume traders, hence low profits for Block. What made it bad for the traders was a) that it was never explained to us why the office was closing (and I don't mean the lies they told us when they initially closed), and b) many of us changed our lives to trade at Block full-time and they could care less... Block is a tool. Want to learn to daytrade? Train with Block, it's free. Want to trade with a reliable company? Go somewhere else...my lone exception to that is the Scottsdale office of Block, which is first-class, well managed, and an incredibly friendly place to trade. Your experience may vary.
