Excuse me. How are you allowed to write customer margin loans as an asset? That is a liability. You don't have that money. That money is loaned out. That money is extremely not yours dude and it is absolutely a liability. What the actual hell @IBKR

@PaxosGlobal @IBKR If a customer of Interactive Brokers buys BTC/ETH via this new association and crypto is "custodied" by Paxos, can the client perform a withdrawal of the Bitcoin - direct via the Paxos exchange to their wallet - or is it like PayPal where it cannot be transferred? Link pls

@HayekAndKeynes @IBKR I've always known how bad their GUI is (I honestly think he likes to keep it that way, to screw with people), but didn't know their Calcs were wrong. That's big with me. Your tweet is actually really helpful, because I was actually thinking of IBKR as a fall-back altern

@NateGeraci Still waiting for the ability to transfer crypto into and out of an @IBKR account, which would help with an ongoing pain point with international bank transfers.

@IBKR this is almost a fraudulent advertising spiel, and you should be reported to theSEC only at the very bottom do you come to the RISKS which is that you loan is unprotected given the super low intersest rates available this has to be really really bad advice

@IBKR recognizes that delivery of two factor auth codes can take up to 3 minutes...yet it's login time is programmed to shut down at 3 minutes. Doesn't make sense.

@HayekAndKeynes @IBKR I am happy with the GUI as it is. Dont give a hoot about the risk calcs. First thing they need to spend money on is system redundancy so it doesnt crash on high-volume mornings, and second - customer support so you dont wait 40 minutes on the phone.

@HayekAndKeynes @IBKR Their platform is seriously flawed. I have already reported two serious issues that they only partially fixed and claimed I was the only one to notice. Daily p&l always wildly off. Using mosaic. Never answer their phone or tickets. Still playing “ due to extreme volatility, ….”

@PaxosGlobal @IBKR What is required for an existing @IBKR customer to trade crypto on Paxos. Is is on Paxos UI, or IBKR platform, eg, additional KYC? Please provide info for both questions here. Many thanks

@JiazhenChen @IBKR I know. Just want them to fix it. It should embarrassing. Shouldn’t need to export to Bloomberg PORT or something else to get risk data.

@IBKR Worst Broker Ever! They placed a hold on an incoming wire transfer so I couldn't trade, and couldn't get them to wire it back either. Whole thing took about a week, and hours on the phone. Finally got the money sent back to Fidelity, where it was available immediately.

@IBKR You should thought about decreasing the margin requirements for trading CME futures in IBKR. I am a IBKR customer for stocks, but for futures I use other Broker since the margins are much lower @IBKR

@FettuccineNQ @IBKR Mobile app is very solid. I like it a lot. They just need a real risk system. Would rather see nothing than bad/misleading data.
