    @IBKR @thomaspeterffy For the life of me I dont know whats going on over at @IBKR but for a trader to not have the ability to do any spreads, iron condors or anything resembling a spread for over 3 months due to technical issues is a MAJOR MAJOR ISSUE!!!!

    @IBKR your platform went down in the middle of trades and cancelled orders, resulting into loss of profit. You guys didn't even give an update. Haven't been able to place orders since more than an hour. PLEASE PROVIDE AN UPDATE #futures #trading #ibkr

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon This is out of desperation contact attempt: Recently opened an IBKR account and trying to transfer in meaningful funding into the said account. Having a glitches and find there is NO WAY to get hold of a real live agent, unlike TOS or many others. How could this be? Please help!

    @IBKR Warning to anyone considering switching to IBKR will allow you to deposit funds but be aware new accounts will not get approved for trading with no explanation. Here's the best part...you cant even send the funds back to your existing broker so just watch the market while they hold your money. No explanation, no customer support, just tough ****.

    Ever since IBKR made the font slightly more green the market has gone to ****. @IBKR please fix this.

    @OddDiligence yes you should have had a bulletin alerting you to that. And yes the clowns at @ibkr said they'd fix it, didn't, and then said resolved.

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon I’m unable to access my account three days ago or create a support ticket despite trying phone, chat, and email. I have also lost my stop-loss and incurred multiple losses as a result. Please contact me

    @kallervoinen @IBKR I don't know I was on a call with 2 other traders and we are all on different continents. We all got "Invalid order" System Rejected order right around the bottom. The problem arise around 10:15 -10:30. We called Support and Trading Desk they provided 0 help and not even cover for the guys that were short. We ended up spamming the Keys until we could get out. I woke up 4 hours later and it's still not working Unacceptable for one of the most legit and biggest broker out there. Clients losing 100's of millions without any way to manage

    @joemccann @IBKR IBKR has pretty bad data imo. Even in their api they mention that it should not be relied upon or something like that.

    Last night @IBKR systems glitched AGAIN and cancelled all my outstanding orders, 17 in total. I just spent more than half an hour resubmitting them thanks to a poor user interface and slow servers. This has happened before a few times and I believe will happen again. So could @IBKR at least offer a way to easily restore the cancelled orders?

  • HalifaxDC
    DC (@HalifaxDC) reported

    @speculator20221 @chessdunk @IBKR They apparently cancelled my order, and now it's saying I'm still short 150,000 Euros, but the problem is my base currency is USD and it won't let me switch it back. On hold with them on their "emergency number" lol. I'm going to assume that they have to fix it, in the end.

    @simpelspekulant @IBKR Well, Nordea is the "quality" dividend name. Probably of the top banks companies in the world. Not cheap. UPM is interesting for their "hidden" energy holdings. Anora if you believe booze demand will rebound. Saga Furs for deep value play. Many names paying about 4-5%.

    @super509219312 @IBKR This is obviously a different level of concern and seems to show that they're not being careful about their updates. In the 7yrs of using them, most issues have been the annoying types, not mini heart attack types For me, if there's another major type of issue, then I'm moving

    Everyday I resent @IBKR's desktop app team using Java for the UI. It's great for them and terrible for all users. From the login to maximizing the app to the slowest column reorder in the world, it all sucks.

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Hello, I am having trouble accessing my Interactive Brokers account. I recently deleted the authenticator from my Microsoft Authenticator app, and now I cannot log in because I no longer have access to the security code. Could you please help me recover my account and reset my

    @IBKR Why does your platform run so awful. Also, I did an ACH transfer into my account that I initiated on Friday and the funds aren't settled in my account. What's the deal? @CharlesSchwab settles my funds after 2 business days. What is the deal ?

    I have 500 bucks left in my @IBKR account that I can't be arsed to remove, and yet I can't even buy anything with it due to their rediculus minimum buy constraints. Worst ******* tradfi platform on the planet. The UX needs a complete rewrite.
