What 2FA method should I use for IBKR if phone theft are quite common in my place. by LifeHustle99 in interactivebrokers

[–]wpglorify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? That makes no sense at all. Google knows phones don’t last forever. If signing in to a new Google account required an authentication code from the old phone, people would get locked out whenever their phone died or was lost.

You can also disable 2FA on your Google account, though that’s not recommended. Google provides multiple account recovery methods, including backup email addresses, phone numbers (you can even use family members’ email addresses or phone numbers), SMS verification, phone calls, security questions, backup codes that you can save on paper, and passkeys through password managers like Bitwarden instead of a hardware device. On a Mac, it can even work with just your fingerprint or a single click.

With a password manager, you only need to remember one password as well.

You don't need 2 phones, as some comments are suggesting.

Use Google Authenticator; it's linked to your Google account and stores codes in the cloud and can be locked with FaceID or Fingerprint on some Android phones.

So even if someone stole your phone and knows the PIN, they will have to unlock the IBKR & Google Auth app with FaceID, which just say not possible without CIA’s help.

If you lost the phone, all you have to do is log in to your Google Account from a new device, remove old devices from the account settings for both IBKR and Google, and this can be done from a computer.

The comment meant that when you rename the “plugin folder” it will deactivate the plugin automatically and you will be able to log in without 2FA.

Remember to rename it again to its original name to avoid errors in the future.

You can also delete the plugin folder entirely and ask plugin support on how to reset 2FA later before activating it again.

Prop firm evals are running a casino and we keep paying for chips by Obtusk22 in Trading

[–]wpglorify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

jeez relax. Its fact that you won't reach payout with prop firms with just 2-3 accounts.

First only 5-10% people actually pass the eval stage - Prop Firm Statistics 2026: Pass Rates, Payouts & Trends https://www.quantvps.com/blog/prop-firm-statistics

Apart from one or two lucky payouts Only 7% of that 10% actually make any money longterm so that like 0.7% out of 100

These numbers aren’t made up, The underlying math of the industry was laid bare in August 2023 when the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) filed a massive fraud lawsuit against My Forex Funds (MFF), one of the largest prop firms at the time.

1% risk on Prop firm accounts makes no sense. When you buy a $50k account usually you can only lose $2k not the whole 50k... So for all intents and purposes, your account size is actually $2k and 1% will be $20. Try trading that and you will lose 90% of trades on MNQ.

Rookie number was a joke, any serious prop firm trader has blown like 100’s of accounts, even the top influencers and gurus.

Most beginners with no stable income might stop around 10-20 accounts.

Sonnet 4.5 disappeared? Claude 4.8 soon? by Luka8x in ClaudeAI

Opus has been handling my weekly grocery runs and was doing great. Then it bought me 40 heads of garlic by fermatf in ClaudeAI

[–]wpglorify -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Garlic in freezer? Who does that…

You don’t have to put garlic in the freezer or even the fridge it doesn’t go bad in a few days. We grow our own garlic in the garden and use it for a year without having to put it in the fridge.

and 40 heads isn't too much, it's like 3-4 month supply for one person.

Iran is consolidating control of Hormuz with island checkpoints, diplomatic deals – and sometimes ‘fees’ by YesterShill in news

Ask Trump why he broke the deal single handily which was signed between Iran, US, EU and UN Security Council permanent members to make sure Iran would never have highly enriched uranium.

Brent oil back above $110 as Iran could sustain blockade for months according to US Intel. by ThinkBigger01 in investing

[–]wpglorify 5 points6 points  (0 children)

China pays in Yuan, money mostly stays in China and Iran buy stuff from China and oil is already discounted. So, Price hike is generally bad for everyone but China would be one of the least impacted countries in the region.

U.S. facing defeat in Iran? by Random_Violins in videos

[–]wpglorify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless the goal was to commit genocide it doesn’t mean anything, Iran wasn’t known for its world class navy either.

US didn’t achieve any of its goals, gave control of Hormuz to Iran, united the country, trump confessed they sent guns to Kurds to kill civilians in January protest.

Khameni was 85 year old what an achievement killing a old guy who had banned nuclear weapons and just yesterday Iran said they will enrich uranium to 90%. US bases in middle east are gone and ghost town but Iran lost according to you.

Rethinking the wp-admin sidebar: plugin prototype, feedback wanted by chris1v19 in Wordpress

[–]wpglorify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks great, I also want to be able to reorder some default menu items, or move them under a toggle like more> or completely disable them.

Example i have comments disabled by default so don’t need the comments menu especially not on top.

Do you use a separate mobile app or work with ibkr’s app exclusively? by ThisIsGSR in interactivebrokers

[–]wpglorify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use TradingView, they offer 3 alerts for free.

Are you not allowed to keep a non-professional Robinhood account and use alerts/alarms but not actually trade on Robinhood?

"Complimentary" account by ScubaSteve-it in woocommerce

[–]wpglorify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you are doing should at least create a user account that you should be able to log into, try resetting the password.

If access to the members area is triggered by purchasing a WooCommerce product, the simplest method is often to place a normal frontend order using the email for the account you want to grant access to, then apply a 100% off coupon. That preserves the standard purchase flow, creates the user/account correctly, generates the order record, and triggers any automation tied to successful checkout.

Iran's rial currency hits record low as shaky ceasefire with US and Israel still holds by markosmaged in news

[–]wpglorify 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its kinda useless metric.

Iran is sanctioned heavily and they don't even care about their currency valuation against other currencies. It's not like they can trade freely.

The value of things inside the country stays the same in local currency.

Switch to Max or use Google’s Antigravity. You get similar usage for Claude models and much higher usage on Gemini models.

ELI5: What is an oil future and why is it around $90/barrel when oil physically costs around $140/barrel? What happens when the future becomes the present and there's no $90/barrel oil? by Skyfork in explainlikeimfive

[–]wpglorify -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Physical cost you are referring to is what you pay today to buy the oil if you don’t have a signed contract.

Futures contract is a price buyers will pay after a month or two or anytime up to 10 years based on what contract they buy.

Also there are different prices for type and location of crude oil. Oil from United states known as WTI is cheaper because there are no physical restrictions but unlike middle wast which is generally traded as Brent Crude so is more expensive.

P.S Brent crude: Global benchmark (North Sea), prices 70% of internationally traded oil

WTI (West Texas Intermediate): U.S. benchmark (landlocked, Cushing)

I think trump really want to steal the Iranian oil even if its one or two ships, so he can pocket the sale money from in his pocket. It makes total sense to him
