Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR When are you going to offer a usable trading software to your clients? TWS is a slow,medieval software.

  • WARREZ420 TeslaRoshi⚡️ (@WARREZ420) reported

    @RonMadison11 @multibagger777 @IBKR Really? $TSLA? Isn’t it one of the most liquid stocks, if not the most?? Wtf

  • unknowntones tones (@unknowntones) reported

    @IBKR He’s prob down 80% from his entry price.

  • f_dabrowski Filip Dabrowski (@f_dabrowski) reported

    @IBKR are you sure your "free trial" account is production-ready? Smells more of a dev playground - getting "You are logged in without Trading/Market Data" warnings all over the place (2 separate accounts) and dev console is swimming in errors 🤨

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR Fix TWS. Attempting to retrieve data BE GONE. Make TWS useful for day traders. Can’t flip through charts quickly.

  • lucky_celia celia (@lucky_celia) reported

    @IBKR You guys are really bad, your damn bad system, stop lying, quickly adjust my aapl average price to the original 162, not 172.53, you have already caused me to lose money, if you don't deal with it, I will resort to the law and accuse you of fraud.

  • bayrichROB OG ROB (@bayrichROB) reported

    Recently moved to @IBKR and it seemed like a great broker but damn man I’ve literally lost money because orders I try to sell don’t fully submit and then when I check my portfolio I realize I still have the positions and I’m down because I thought I sold 30 mins ago!!!!

  • TheOneArmBandit The One Arm Bandit (@TheOneArmBandit) reported

    @ibkr TWS crashes again. This is after having to use Ctrl-Alt-R 4 times in an hour. Yesterday, same problem on a different computer and network.

  • DavePerrino Dave Perrino - Boosted and better than ever.🇺🇸 (@DavePerrino) reported

    @satcheluk @IBKR The Fed has rules to operate. The FDIC guarantees my money in banks. The SEC regulates stocks and other financial instruments. The Federal Government can legally issue Bonds & tax citizens. Crypto is regulated by no one. The value is moved by very few. It's NOT the same.

  • 0xWoolly 0xWoolly 🔺(🎩, 🎩) (@0xWoolly) reported

    @SStayathomedad @IBKR The open/closing price of each candle should line up with the open/closing price of the previous candle. Otherwise what the chart is saying is that the price randomly teleported up or down in the 0 time between candles. Just an observation :)

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR @SteveSosnick Thomas is asking “why isn’t everybody on our platform? […] I don’t know”. Well let me answer that for you: other brokers offer better service for their clients for the same $$ eg provide a useable, FAST trading platform. TradingWorkStation is a GARBAGE.

  • MrDavidNIO DavidNIO (@MrDavidNIO) reported

    @IBKR & @saxobank are 2 of them. I'm pretty confident there are much more if not majority.They open FX & beta hedging positions against clients' assets and use that to drive down the price.Until you fix the system #DRS is going to be our number one choice. We don't need T+2! #GME

    @__ZionLion__ @tradingview @IBKR Multple sources, this **** can’t be a glitch

  • fotiosdotcom fotios.eth 💎 (@fotiosdotcom) reported

    I helped someone sell their rip-off mutual funds and buy equivalent ETFs on @IBKR instead. Fees before: entry 5.00%, annual 2.01%, exit 3.00%, performance 10% #WTF Fees after: annual fee is 0.07%, buy/sell 0.05% Be careful with mutual funds offered by sales people at banks.

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR Crappy, unusable & slow trading software TWS #OnlyatInteractiveBrokers

  • BiotechSacred AnonymouseSqueak (@BiotechSacred) reported

    @LukeWolgram @puppyeh1 @IBKR Depends, when delisting occurs you are liable for the margin rate + cash consideration until shares are cancelled. In 'uncoverable' events margin rates can get to ridiculous 1000%+ levels, so people cover shorts, stock goes up above 'fair value' i.e. longs sell, so rates go down.

  • RonMadison11 Ron NoFilterGooGoo🔥🩳🔥😳👨🏻‍🍼 (@RonMadison11) reported

    @multibagger777 @IBKR They crash their servers when you try to buy $TSLA or $AMC. Their best friends over at citadel may be trying to feast away before you get in.

  • ProbablyRalph Probably Ralph (@ProbablyRalph) reported

    @IBKR Wanna know how to get more people to IBKR? Offer an actual direct to market solution without order flow delay or routing orders to Citadel.

  • satcheluk satcheluk (@satcheluk) reported

    @IBKR A lot of ignorant trolls here. I don't, for instance, go on a bull riding tweet and comment on how bad it is because I've never ridden a bull. I don't have relevant context to accurately form a fact based opinion. Maybe a few of you should consider that.

  • Dragon_Flare_AZ 🐉🔥Dragon Flare🌵🇺🇸 (@Dragon_Flare_AZ) reported

    @IBKR They are really bad actors.

  • RandyVegetables 尹天熾 - A.K.A. RandyVegetables (@RandyVegetables) reported

    @multibagger777 @TomasSin4 @IBKR Not net. No. Cash? Yes. Stock down, options up. Value in stock lost more than gained in options.

  • whitebreadfox Whitebreadfox (@whitebreadfox) reported

    @IBKR @SteveSosnick Lmao “IB platforms the best?” You gotta be kidding Thomas. IB can’t even provide a fast working trading software for their clients. TWS is a joke and you can’t even fix basic problems. IBKR is getting worse and worse

  • CryptoC55262261 AMC and GME Hodler for #MOASS (@CryptoC55262261) reported

    @AllyCare I'm no customer of Ally. I'm a customer of @IBKR

    @IBKR How about helping your developers fix TWS? :) “attempting to retrieve data”

    @ChrisWeston_PS @jameswhelan42 Maybe @IBKR data glitch!

  • __ZionLion__ ZION LION (@__ZionLion__) reported

    @KaranSinghxNL @tradingview @IBKR its not a glitch.
