  • OctoberFund
    October Fund (@OctoberFund) reported

    Is IBKR Paper Trader currently down? Why don’t I have permission to trade on the paper account anymore? @IBKR

  • Anssi_A
    Anssi Alkio (@Anssi_A) reported

    @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%.

    @IBKR My application U24947179 has been stuck since March 25. Promised same-day resolution, got nothing. Now I'm 403'd from Live Chat so I can't even reach support. No ETA, no update. What's going on?

    @aleabitoreddit @labubu_trader @IBKR I totally concur that #IBKR UI is trash, also the response time for navigating and waiting for things to load is just intolerable. Please upgrade the infra and spend some money to fix!

    Acmesafeco (@acmesafeco) reported

    @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 ****.

    @IBKR You found this out, I'm not in trouble

  • blondesnmoney
    Cluseau Investments (@blondesnmoney) reported

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

  • speculator20221
    speculator (@speculator20221) reported

    @HalifaxDC @chessdunk @IBKR Yeah they will have to fix it. Let me know what they say if you don’t mind as to what’s happening.

  • Olde_Pharte
    RobertoenMexico (@Olde_Pharte) reported

    @IBKR Useless. Can't login and am told to get help by phone. But they don't answer the phone. They refer me back to their support page which says I have to call. Thank God they've got very little of my money.

  • DividendMil
    DividendMillennial (@DividendMil) reported

    @GeorgeFChahine @IBKR I might open an $IBKR account. I have heard great things and schwab is slacking a bit in their customer service

  • dontbsalti
    Market Mommy (@dontbsalti) reported

    @trader2179 @IBKR @whop Or IBKR has to explain why there’s a mathematical error in the post that is now deleted.

  • Investm80789211
    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

  • FortieJami77198
    Jamie Fortie (@FortieJami77198) reported

    @IBKR hey yo, settled DRS transfer not received after 10 business days, ticket system unresponsive. Phone call got hung up, all tickets are AI, no customer service. Like WTF, guys stay a mile from this broker if you can

  • wilson_eth
    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.

  • A_Dev9
    DeV (@A_Dev9) reported

    @IBKR I had to deal with 3 separate customer care executives on 3 different instances and each of them gives conflicting reasons and advice for the delay and additional documentation. The customer care folks who handle the calls are not clear of your own process.

    @IBKR dear ibkr i deposited funds on my ibkr account on 20th March till now I not received funds in my ibkr account but deducted from bank on the 20th please help asap add my funds

  • WDoft
    David Wayne (@WDoft) reported

    @IBKR Sorry for bringing the average down.

  • mindfultrader22
    mindfultrader (@mindfultrader22) reported

    @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

  • blackjack_god
    BlackjackGod (@blackjack_god) reported

    @IBKR 24 hour access sounds like edge until you price 3 things: carry, margin calls, and overnight gaps. More table hours only help if your read survives the next open.

  • AiStockAgent
    Agent Smith (@AiStockAgent) reported

    @BloomDemark @IBKR I tried. It says I don’t have trading permission. Customer service taking forever to pick up

  • subst8nce
    subst8nc3 (@subst8nce) reported

    @IBKR @JoseTorresEcon A company so big and successful, that it went to the trouble of implementing Advanced Charts but cant provide a decent backend to actually load them in the application. Get some real architects, seriously.

    @SixSigmaCapital @IBKR I had issues with delays aswell. Took about a week for funds to arrive

  • theverysmartone
    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.

    @joemccann @IBKR Does it support 1 min candles ?

  • MarkBratt924939

    @Prometheus2025 @IBKR I don’t, but if I were a ****** capitalist I would own physical goods such as property, precious metal, guns, non taxable physical coin collection. Paper is coming to an end and US Tbonds are going down to CIPS and destruction of the petrodollar.

    .@IBKR what happened with leverage ETFs order. I see that suddenly I have started getting error that I don’t have permission to trade this type of securities. Whereas I am trading leveraged ETFs since last six years without any issues except today.
