More good points >
Yeah > I agree with your first line
My biggest deep thought is what will be the "Trigger" of said event > Not that we do not have many >
In the mean time "I wait" like a vulture on perch with no trades on
Yep > at this point I don't even have any "feel" for what "Is and May" happen >
Charts or not!
Just looked at some 2011 vids as a refresher to that event >
Same crap > Debt ceiling / Downgrade
Have a good weekend gang
pretty powerful bond move >
catastrophic 30Y auction
ups / fedex
Emini Barry >
D > Thank you >
I have a few questions I'll address to later
Glad things are "working" thus far
You inputs will be a great help to all seeing as your the first here to go thru it
Not certain what the criteria was for the "blocks" of accounts to be migrated at differing time frames
All good here > Have a fine day
D > Thanks, seems we are putting the puzzle pieces
together to "know / expect" > Hope this helps all thru migration
I don't think EDGE will be going anywhere for a while
As D mentioned in the past number of years there has been a huge push to mobile
devices whether we like it or not > TOS had it and TDA bought it
When Schwab slowly dropped StreetSmartPro to EDGE that took about a year
as I recall and I was right in the middle of that mess
D > copy all
thanks for update
Agree with paragraph 2
I assume the "bigger fraud" would be via a mobile devices vs desktop / laptop
Fairly new is Schwab"s "Voice ID" on phone > voice recognition / authentication
Thanks for the account number (save) hint > if your "paperless" that can be a problem >
Did you talk to a Schwab rep or TOS tech ? >> YES by all means report dissatisfaction of event to a superior
I try not to deal with a "front person" and transfer to tech as their knowledge is much better and can advise
proper path even if they have to forward on
FYI I don't / won't do mobile "but" that's just my preference in dealing with devices and security
Pls keep us posted on merge
Have a good weekend gang >
What a crazy week
moving a bunch of bank & brokerage accounts around >
pretty much doing an "All In" to SWVXX, Schwab MMF >
Leaving TOS funds alone till merge to Schwab is complete
Be more active trading wise later and into new year
Well said > nothing much to add to your post
more TOS to Schwab >
some valid points >
Or Not / TOS view >
Yep > there was a Dog and Pony show >
still trying to figure out what happened from 08:30:
D > same here
D > will see how this plays out Wed
Algo chaos coming that's for certain
I don't know if there is an FOMC "Dog and Pony" show after the 2PM
Yep >
Not to mention the clown show in DC dealing with
another government shutdown looming in two weeks.
Wed could get wild >
Treasury's Quarterly Refunding will be released at 8:30 a.m. EST
FOMC releasing its policy decision at 2 pm EST.
Federal Reserve's policy statement is setting up to be the No. 2 event on Wednesday
with investor focus instead likely to be on the Treasury Department's new borrowing
plan, due hours ahead of the interest-rate decision
pretty much same here > thanks
D > copy, thanks
D > thanks >
one other question > did you have a prior schwab account?
I do for a long time and thru that my merge may differ
I'm not changing anything until I get a notice of merge date
D > did you receive a notice of migration? >
I know they are doing this in blocks
Tech stated mine would probably be in the latter stages
D > thanks < I was going to call them
but you beat me to it.
I think they are still dealing in/with a moving target thru this evolution
and commend them for their efforts
D >>> That might be "Save Work Space">
I do not know the "full story" about the "everything" transfer
"For us" I still stand behind having a full backup to transfer or recover from
I'll try to find out more > "the real info"
The person in the vid "may not" be aware of All the transfer mechanisms
However it Did surprise him on that start up
More TOS to Schwab stuff >

D > one other thing >
As we have had problems long ago with a botched forced Build updates
May I strongly suggest you do a full backup of what you have now
I my case I have all on a spare hard drive and a 2nd computer hard drive
For us to loose all our coding work,studies & settings would be a disaster
Absolute worst case planning > I had that happen once with a main hard drive crash
D > I didn't get a Y or N answer from the TOS/TDA
Tech guys but I "think" Schwab's StreetSmartEdge will die a slow death and TOS within Schwab
will be its full replacement. >> At least in conversation with tech I caught a hint of that decision as
Schawb is "All In" on TOS and some other hint's.
I certainly Do Not expect any "additional funds" to keep TOS during/after full merge >
Hi D > Long time > hope all is good with you
chewing on your post now > reply to it later
thanks
Yep, will probably shift a big load over next week >
Not certain for direct TDA to Schwab transfer as I don't think my accounts are "combined" yet
Don't want to get into another account/password debacle like I had not so many days ago
Thanks for reminder
Charles Schwab pays 5.22% for shares traded into their MMF SWVXX.
https://www.schwabassetmanagement.com/resource/swvxx-snaxx-fact-sheet
yep,+5.55% today
Have a good weekend gang >
lots of moving parts, "bad things" going on in the world
