Subject : RE: Questions Regarding GXT Transition to Gar Wood
Posted : 9/6/2016 2:51 PM
Post #36403 - In reply to #36382

0) Will I need a GXT account? (I think not, but...)


No.


1) Will I need to create a Gar Wood account? Or do I simply link my IB account to Gar Wood so Nirvana can send my server TP trades via FIX?


No, you do not need to create an account at Gar Wood. Once we are ready to bring accounts under Gar Wood, we will send you instructions to complete the simple linking process.


2) Will I be able grant Gar Wood trading rights to an existing IB account without loosing my ability to also place trades using the same funds? Or will Gar Wood funds need to be segregated from IB TWS funds?


Yes, in most cases you can link multiple IB accounts. F type accounts (friends and family, some advisor accounts) cannot be linked. Those accounts will have to be opened directly through Gar Wood.

You will continue to have TWS access and there is no need to separate funds.


3) Will I be able to ACH funds to/from IB via my existing ACH instructions? Or will I need to go through Gar Wood to make deposits/withdrawals?


I will have to check with the broker on this.

I should probably wait for the dust to settle on transitioning GXT customers to Gar Wood/IB, but server TP support for IB has been on the wish list for a long time. I'm excited!
Cheers
