  • arsalanjami AJ (@arsalanjami) reported

    @IBKR going on more than 1 hr now. No price updates same issues. Charts frozen. Totally fuckery

  • KenPowers00 Ken Powers (@KenPowers00) reported

    @IBKR And now this site is acting like POS Kraken...won't allow clients to login, major disruption with site. OK...we need to issue trading licence to people like drivers lic, so only some can trade. This is the only solution if these cats don't fix their capacity issues.

  • JonathanBesler Jonathan Besler 6'2 IQ 133 (@JonathanBesler) reported from Calgary, Alberta

    @WSBChairman @IBKR claims my attempt to buy is a "future" or equivalent wtf?

  • PD13158196 P.D. (@PD13158196) reported

    @IBKR What happened guys your stock price is down soooooooo much? Did you let the same raiders who you allowed to screw w our accounts in to yours?

  • arsalanjami AJ (@arsalanjami) reported

    @IBKR seriously getting sick of the platform breaking down. I can understand market open but mid day? Comon. You can do better. Cant see any prices. Charts are frozen. API showing different prices. Option prices going haywire. Nothing is matching anything. I liquidated all pos.

    @IBKR Why is Trader Pro running like crap? FIX YOUR SERVERS! $IBKR @IBKR

  • edgarsdzerins edgarsdzerins (@edgarsdzerins) reported

    @IBKR_TI @SteveSosnick @IBKR Brokers are well known leeches who rob their clients and never are accountable for anything (only steeling money for doing nothing in both market is up or down)!

  • HeyGregor Gregor (@HeyGregor) reported

    @IBKR Since long options have a 100% requirement (and debit spreads and covered calls carry no net risk), why would ALL options on these issues be liqs only? Why would my grandmother not be able to sell a covered call against her AMC? (Asking for widows and orphans everywhere.)

  • HeyGregor Gregor (@HeyGregor) reported

    @IBKR Even a naked put could be completely covered by a 100% requirement (underlying at the strike.) Please help me understand your risk assessment reasoning. I need to have confidence in my brokerage.

  • RobPileggi Rob Pileggi (@RobPileggi) reported

    I can't write covered calls in at $AMC? WTF @IBKR #IBKR. 18 years of floor trading experience and I can't do the most basic of options trades. You're painting with a very broad brush. #pathetic

    @IBKR I can buy the hell out of $nakd but I can't sell cover calls on my $nok. Stupid and criminal.

  • briedissuo briedissuo (@briedissuo) reported

    @IBKR You really shouldn't, because they might arbitrarily restrict what you can buy. That should be illgal, especially when I'm paying you for the service. @IBKR you are not the SEC! I will definitely be looking at other brokers after this.

  • FluxCapacityCap Fernando (@FluxCapacityCap) reported

    If was actually at $413.98 this morning without issues. @IBKR

  • LCiaran Ciaran (@LCiaran) reported

    @IBKR have been waiting on your customer service forever. Are you still liquid, or should I pull all of my money now?

  • WBugger19 WollyBugger (@WBugger19) reported

    @tormentedkitten @IBKR ExActly this. I have LEAPs on BB and I want to sell calls against it. This is irrelevant of what’s happening with GME. **** your @IBKR

  • E__A_S_M Dave Darsky (@E__A_S_M) reported

    @Ibkr @thomaspetterfy NEXT LEVEL STUPID: Thomas petterfy, CEO of interactive brokers, goes on air and says: "no, short squeezes are illegal" How is a naturally market mechanism illegal, you corrupt old ****. Somebody put this guy in a nursing home and replace your leaders ffs
