Issue: This concerns an entry appearing in one of my brokerage accounts of the Online Center/Scottrade/Balances tab. It shows a margin entry. I setup no margin account at that brokerage and they've confirmed that fact.
Detail: After executing my first billing paying session through Q2005HB to my bank, the Scottrade brokerage account failed to execute. though it had connected online and updated it's balance for a two week period prior to my having gotten so brave with electronic bill payment. Examining the account for the root cause, I discovered an entry for a margin account as described above. I didn't put it there. I'm more concerned at this point in understanding the source of that entry than I am on getting the account to connect properly. I'll simply try reentering the login and PW data and if that fails, I'll delete the account from the online list and reactivate it from scratch.
Q1) Anyone know if there is a feed for the Margin entry on the Balances tab of any given brokerage in the Online Center section?
Q2) Anyone have an idea of what may have happened here? Everything seems to have executed properly on the surface with this and one more exception; two Fidelity accounts got merged. I think I did that by accident along the way. I need to separate them again which brings me to my last question.
Q3) Any suggestions for removing transactions that got merged in error from one investment account to another and placing them back into the original account?
