    William W. Nicholas (@Alohayall_) reported

    @IBKR The worst ever cause ibkr never care about the needs of users. When everyone is requiring the removal of pdt, ibkr is holding action and deliberately preventing investors to be more flexible.

    @IBKR @D3GSolutions The app us awful. I switched back to workstation still bad but better than the app.

  • TheLepsGold777
    TruthFreedomPeace (@TheLepsGold777) reported

    @SOBRBC @IBKR If you got the "missing libxcb cursor library" error during installation,try using Synaptic Package Manager and search for libxcb-cursor0 and install that and then the IBKR Desktop install should work.

    Happy 19-year customer of @IBKR here. This is the first feature WS rolled out where I'd consider moving all 6 of my accounts. Let me know an ETA for when you can ship this, I'd rather not move.

    DadBod (@alpha_imag8252) reported

    @IBKR No solution for my problem so far. The Windows app doesn't go through the opening process in any of my computers in 2 different adresses. My friends told me they have the same problem. What is happening???

    @buyerofponzi @IBKR They grew too fast and their support has always been the weakest link

    @MartyZimme90457 @IBKR @chinoalemano That's normal, because all the apps are showing the old numbers. The future is defined by stocks like $DGXX. I have no idea who this person is. But I can hardly imagine anyone being stupid enough to short this stock. Good luck to you!

    @IBKR No communication channel work...you can try your self as outsider...you will not able to reach your own customer care..... check and call Qatar contact number on ur website, try chat you will receive nothing???

    My current long stocks in order of portfolio allocation %: $IREN $EOSE $NUAI $KRKNF $CIFR $OSCR $DGXX $POET I have mostly diversified because it makes me able to buy more IREN. @IBKR concentration house rules are the worst.

    @IBKR $10.25 Commission for 10 call options. $10 per 1000 shares of ETF's WTF?

    @grok @IBKR This feels like vaporware. wtf?

  • LBTaikonauta

    @SpaceX ****, only open to US residents in @IBKR

    @ilia_el_pro @MaxCarozza @IBKR I had the same issue. Seems like they are scrambling to fill the book.

    @solana @calilyliu Tokenized. Cool. @IBKR has it too - regulated, insured, no seed phrase (to loose). Liquidity on Nasdaq ≈ no problem

  • ALBACapMgmt
    🅰️LB🅰️ 📈📉 (@ALBACapMgmt) reported

    There are hundreds of incredibly annoxing things about @IBKR TWS but the worst is that you always have to add implied vols to option chains and watchlists because they dont save. Anyone found a way round this ? 🙏

    赛博游牧武士道 (@wenchengwude) reported

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon Please lift the PDT restriction on my account! I’ve moved all my funds to Charles Schwab, but their app is terrible—it’s incredibly sluggish and requires a VPN to access from within China! I don’t want to leave Interactive Brokers; this is my home! Please lift the PDT restriction

  • blauyourmind
    Michael Blau (@blauyourmind) reported

    Everybody is talking about the @RobinhoodApp MCP, but almost nobody is talking about @IBKR launching something similar. Interesting choice, though: @IBKR went with a ChatGPT app instead of an MCP server, so I can't actually use it in codex. Only in ChatGPT.

  • BoBbyPleWniaK
    Bobby Plewniak (@BoBbyPleWniaK) reported

    @jzrdan @IBKR It’s being used as a marketing tool. Fidelity dropping down to 2,000 minimum was done on purpose

  • MrSinatra_MDW
    Mr Sinatra (@MrSinatra_MDW) reported

    @grok @IBKR Truthifi has very limited hardcaps and other problems and doesn’t do much.

  • D3GSolutions
    Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reported

    I have to switch brokers @IBKR has some serious issues with their app. It's like 10x slower than any other brokerage to navigate to trade. Then stop limits don't even work on stocks with a penny spread it's bizarre

  • LeonLionNoel

    @IBKR Go **** yourselves.

  • waltuuuhr

    @stan100x @IBKR Why do you think a different brokerage will help with this? Anyway try out tastytrade, they have lower fees at least

    @IBKR IBKR, I am a refugee and I want to support you, but you use address verification to shut me out.

    @cobie @buyerofponzi @IBKR too bad the IBKR M&A guys are probably not on x

  • xicbassix
    TJ Brush (@xicbassix) reported

    @IBKR Your ticket response was awful. It was just a bot message that provided no assistance. I have now been subject to PDT blackout rules for seven business days. This is ridiculous.

  • EdwardAmar46469

    @IBKR IBKR sucks horrible desktop and worse mobile app! Cluttered god awful! Switch to $HOOD!

  • jminvesting
    John Martin (@jminvesting) reported

    I really want to use @IBKR and twice now I've tried to fund and set up an account. Their insistence on you having your phone nearby to check their mobile app for some code every 10 minutes has caused me to give up each time. Awful experience and poor security design.

    @berniethebutler @citrini @IBKR is the only solution in europe

    EliteTrading (@EliteGainzTrade) reported

    @buyerofponzi @IBKR Terrible service, perhaps the worst. I've had countless glitches and had my account locked before too.

    @IBKR Need login support ASAP
