@IBKR Yes, with TradingView, but it keeps disconnecting. Other providers work fine, so needs a fix.

@IBKR I tried IBKR for algo trading and passed. You need TWS/IB Gateway (or the Client Portal Gateway) running 24/7, sessions auto-restart daily, and there’s still periodic manual login/2FA—usually about weekly. For a hands-off stack, that’s a deal-breaker for me.

@JoachimMo1985 @IBKR Worst I've had so far was 870%. so this has to be a new record.... I still need to set up a way to download borrowing fees daily from IB so I can skip trades with giant fees like that.

Really disappointed with @IBKR lately. Some streaming quotes fail on their outdated desktop app, but work on mobile (not the first time I see this issue). Support can't explain issues & no follow-through 48 hours later. They're letting themselves down—people will leave if they don't improve.

@IBKR Spend less on advertising and more on making your account opening requirements less laborious. I have 4 broking accounts and IBKR's system is the worst.

the top of the ipo market is @ibkr finally getting rid of their ridiculous price limit cap they've had on new issues. Today you can buy $BLSH at whatever price you want. Before they would have capped you at like $38 or something stupid. np

@IBKR Ah yes, because nothing says stability like betting on the casino's insurance policy.

(@sumo_moon) reported
@Malone_Wealth @rogerhamilton fees down to 27% on IBKR this is not normal and they should be this low @IBKR keeps pushing those borrow fees down yet they magically keep finding shares to print 250k, 1 million etc after hitting zero available shares a few times or close to it

@IBKR Lol - your app is atrocious - the user experience is a joke - one of the worst brokers to use - you are still living in 2005

Losing faith in @IBKR - their site is garbage. Each page takes forever to load and it's some 1996 interface. Now it's not showing my balance information and the site goes down for maintenance daily. During the trading day it may just not work at all!

@IBKR I’m not receiving the verification email! The email isn’t arriving. And why was 2-factor authentication (2-FA) suddenly changed to 3-factor authentication (3-FA)? I didn’t authorize this. I want to log in only using the authenticator. And I don’t want to be restricted just because I’m using a VPN. I can't even send a support request via website or reach out via phone call except on office hours. Your lack of support options are disgusting.

@IBKR Because she failed to get the DND post (and the support of the entire military), she proceeded to court the OFWs being another group of great numbers. She how her mind works to remain power - and using government funds as well?

I‘m happy to announce that I have moved all my $TSLA shares to @IBKR in time before the record date was announced, so that I am finally able to vote in the upcoming shareholder meeting 🎉🚀 You have just lost another customer because of your inability to allow proxy voting @traderepublic

@IBKR I am also trying to get in touch with customer service. It is impossible. IB has the worst service and the worst software in the business. Terrible people and inferior product.
