Agent Smith (@AiStockAgent) reportedI can’t close any of my futures positions at interactive Brokers.. anyone else having this issue?? Bad timing for IBKR to be broken in this crazy market! @IBKR
-
Korban (@AwokenApollyon) reported@rfcapital2 @etrade It’s been broken for literally ******* weeks. I’m about to move my money to @IBKR
-
AngryPhysicist, PhD. (@Drcamole) reported@IBKR Hello @ibkr ... I have a new phone and a new phone number. It has been impossible to speak to anyone due to the lack of IB key and I have tried live chat, email, phonecall, and feedback report, but nothing works. How do I get in touch with someone regarding this. Please help!!!!
-
Treize (@TreizeKushrena2) reported@assface_burner @IBKR $hood is a joke, won’t let you trade with unsettled funds when volatility is elevated like today. Ask me how I know lol. Its slow as hell, has terrible fills. IBKR fills instantly, clearly the superior brokerage
-
Ethics (@ethics3606) reportedI 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.
-
TrendTrader (@TrendTrader_US) reported@IBKR Your customer service is lacking compared to Fidelity and Scwab. Why do you restrict IRAs from trading $BNO, $CPER, $MPLX … when the other two don’t? Your customer ssrvice never follows thru to resolve these issues despite promising to do so. #noaccountability
-
Colt45.eth (@wilson_eth) reported@TheTechInvest @IBKR The buyer of these is far more likely just playing the pop on the depressed option. Not bad news by any means but probably similar to the $700 tsla calls that keep coming through heavy.
-
One foot hurdle (@one_foothurdle) reported@IBKR Thx for your reply, but this was a week ago. 😬 This was a first technical issue in a long time, so no hard feeling, but would have liked a much swifter response in the app,this took several hours and that is just too long.
-
Palmer (@BankTheTrade) reportedIs it just me or is @IBKR TWS doing things on its own, most of which are very aggravating. Secondary confirmation order tickets opening on their own = delays. Sounds confirmations not working. Log-in confirmation not being sent to phone ap half of the time.
-
Vrushabh Bhangod (@Vrushabh3211) reported@IBKR hi , I think there’s an error with the total calculations when underlyings are in different currencies like ILS or EUR. The final daily P&L isn’t converted to USD. Please fix this as soon as possible. Thanks !
-
Ricky Chen (@ChenRshen3p) reported@IBKR IB Desktop is down, nothing is loading at the moment, any info on that?
-
GardinerIslandCapital (@GardinerIsland) reportedhey .@IBKR $IBKR this is getting annoying who does your prices these days ? Yahoo ? $RITM went ex-*** today ..... its green on day 10 cents while you have it red 15 cents FIX YA ******* SYSTEM ALREADY
-
Jabon McGrewber (@JacobMcGrew6) reported@binaycjha @IBKR Same here. All trading permissions gone all of a sudden. Looks to be a system issue per how many other people are having the issue
-
Sabs Goranova (@sgoranova82) reportedWould not recommend @IBKR to anyone at the moment. Locked out of trading account due to a system bug for a week. No one able to give an answer when this is fixed or resolved. No apologies, compensation or updates. Lousy customer care. Who is the regulatory body in the US?
-
James Sun (@LSKMSun) reported@IBKR what maintenance??? App not accessible!!!
-

-
𝔢𝔦𝔩𝔦𝔰𝔱𝔯𝔞𝔢𝔢 (@iB3Bestpony1985) reported@IBKR Please inbox me for more information in and if you're willing to help me fix this issue you shouldn't (discriminate) due to financial capacity and I don't use the word discriminate lightly.
-
JT Gert (@the1Gert) reported@AiStockAgent @IBKR Same issue, fixed it by going into settings->trading permissions ->edit and then switch permission on for something that wasn't previously selected. Solved it for me right away.
-
James Sun (@LSKMSun) reported@IBKR the speed for es quote is very slow!!!!!
-
One foot hurdle (@one_foothurdle) reported@super509219312 @IBKR It is very annoying. But in all honesty. It is the first time in a very long time that I have experienced a technical problem with @IBKR
-
Alex 👹 (@Alex_Steger_) reportedIf anyone happens to be having problems with the API on @IBKR after last night's TWS update to 10.43, go to file, change version, and stable and that fixes it IBKR is working on a fix but this is their short term solution
-
DarthKenobi (@plantbasedlc) reported@IBKR @IBKR I already contacted them - and they already contacted IBKR - the issue is IBKR won’t expose automation API service to them so they can integrate. Can you submit product request?
-
Investment (@Investm80789211) reported@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
-
Manny (@theverysmartone) reported@dontbsalti @IBKR @whop Whop is the worst platform ever, they truly don't care about the customers at all, they are all about the commissions they get from the course sellers.
-
JT Gert (@the1Gert) reported@JosephW31117119 @senzu_capital @IBKR same issue
-
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.
-
🅰️LB🅰️ (@ALBACapMgmt) reported@IBKR Oi *********. What is the point of providing any pnl information if you are just going to value US etfs at nonsensical fkg values during non cash equity hours. AOR for example. ******* you people are impossible to like.
-
SGPrincess | 土皮公主 (@sg_princess_sg) reportedThis weekend will be dedicated to fix my IBKR desktop regular crash, watchlist not saved upon restart and TradingView connection issue. What a nightmare it has been with IBKR. I will leave when my current options positions got clear. It should be by end of the year. @IBKR I think u truly need to catch up with ur dinosaur tech deck, but I am completely fine with the fact that u don’t want to serve tech generation traders.

irby (@irby0955) reported@IBKR Combine service wtf bro someone call Gordon freeman
