@IBKR Where can I leave a bad review for you? I’ll start with you have decent charting. However, everything else about your business sucks! Terrible order execution. Heavy lag between the charts and real time quotes that I pay for. Terrible fills. Absolutely terrible. Stay away!!!!!

@IBKR So FRC is in trouble and Interactive Brokers has them listed for holding up to 5% of clients cash deposits. Is Interactive Brokers safe or should people start wiring their money out on Monday?

@IBKR Sadly what they say and do in practice is miles apart! E.g. first 10k doesn’t receive interest. Many hidden charges written in labyrinth of T&Cs that won’t even make much sense for most seasoned professionals. I had to complain to ombudsman to get unfair charge refunded

The @IBKR user interface is terrible. Without a full redesign I wouldn't be surprised if they go to way of the Dodo.

Dear @IBKR I've found another bug in your software which I'm sure you will ignore. In entering an offer order in the vix April/May calender spread at zero, its declined because "the price cannot be zero". Zero in this instance is in fact a price. YW

@IBKR The issue was resolved after spending some time with technical support. The person on the line was very thorough, but the SMS problem itself keeps popping up on twitter/reddit posts (warrants more attention). Very satisfied with your service once I managed to get approved though.

@EmmetPeppers Thanks @EmmetPeppers will look into @IBKR Like Schwab but their customer service declined since they merged with TD Ameritrade. Still feels safe though The worst might be Wells Fargo. Never would trust them with cash. They're constantly hacked and service nrs hijacked

@IBKR - marking $SVIB at $106 and then increasing the borrow rate while it's halted is fraud...fix your marks.

Execution at Interactive Brokers has become a pain, the SMART algorithm is unable to get me good fills and do quick sweeps across exchanges even w/ max fill settings, also the flash boys own IB clients now in the premarket already judging from what I am seeing. It's so bad @IBKR

@joeytee_ I use @IBKR Pro margin & selling puts on more expensive stocks. That way if I get assigned I can use DCA money to pay down the loan (+ covered call income). I use @RobinhoodApp for selling puts on cheaper stocks so I save commission since I often open & close.

@FreeloadFreddy @Fidelity @IBKR Td is saying you can exercise but its a 100% maintenance requirement. So if you have 100 puts at the 70 strike you need 700k cash in your account in order to exercise. Some nefarious is going on here. My guess is a mm is on the hook for billions and pressuring occ and brokers.
