>>But I think all of them should be made accountable about informing their customers when a problem crops up.<< MBT was okay last week, but I agree with your general position that too often when something goes wrong the reaction from MBT, as from others, is to blame your ISP (or whatever) for their own failure to invest in server capacity. But my point was that if anybody's use of leverage gets him/her into trouble, the blame lies not with the leverage but with one's money management failure. When you close out a position because you don't dare ask your girl friend for the money to meet the margin call, it's a sure sign of a bottom. The position will turn profitable within 24 hours. Invariably.
