IB TraderWork Station - missing the Greeks

[Seneca60BC]

Hi All

I am currently looking at my TWS from IB, and I noticed that I am missing the Greeks - meaning that the columns are there but not infor.

I am yet to fund my account.

Here is a picture:

I couldn't help notice that you have been asking alot of questions on how to use the IB platform.

Just open a paper trading account and play around with the settings.

Looking at your profile your an IT guru...c'mon mate show some initiative!!!

PS: The Greeks are available

You won't get the greeks unless you subscribe to the live data.

Seneca,

I noticed you have just set up an IB account, how long did it take, what sort of ID did you submit and what’s the margining process, currently I use comsec so I initially nominated a HIN attached to some stocks I own which are used to submit as collateral to the OCH, just wondering how its done with IB.

Is it as simple as buying stock through them then that can be used to put up as collateral to the OCH, being a fully eletronic broker is it a matter of setting up online?

Thanks,

Cutz.
