Jona (@JJLDoc) reported.@IBKR You guys are the worst. I set to sell my position with a limit and it passed that limit but no fill. I canceled it and made way lower limit but no sell. Tried many time with no fill. When the IV crashed I put a sell limit it got filled. So pathetic 🙄
-
Brandon (@D3GSolutions) reported@IBKR No I'm moving to another brokerage. It's 2026 I'm not submitting web tickets when I'm trading $100k positions. You guys can pick up a phone like every other normal brokerage. Take some tips from Schwab and you guys need better customer service, app UX and really everything.
