The platform @IBKR is the absolute worst. Had it not been the one place that accepted my LP/Fund I would have housed it somewhere else. Gonna try to switch it up end of Q1.

@IBKR Your software TWS is the worst. Very unreliable crap. Can’t flip through charts fast enough because “attempting to retrieve data”. Can’t even do simple things like change background color to distinguish premarket

@IBKR Do u realize its impossible to bring up the options window in any of the index ETFs or any semi volatile name? If I try to do it freezes my entire computer. To trade options I have to log off my comp & use my phone. How much longer are u going to pretend this isnt an issue?

@etrade Why is it taking so long to resolve the vendor issues on the futures accounts? Very disappointed, this has been a mess and I will likely switch to @IBKR once I close out these positions.

@danieljmardorf @IBKR I’m short from yesterday. Can’t pound the pig anymore. I’ve got a damn margin call to deal with.

@ByrneHobart Really wish they enabled the option to buy - at least as soon as things cool down (if they do). @IBKR

@tamoust I don't know, @IBKR could be one place maybe? Liquidity could be an issue, though.

@NickGiva @IBKR Then "To address this, Interactive Brokers has placed the ADRs listed in closing only and we encourage you to wind down your positions before March 4, 2022. After March 4, 2022 you will not be able to close out your positions." If we don't = we lose them ? Or kept until ... ?

@whitebreadfox @IBKR Then why keep using it? there's a dozen other brokers you can use. Plus it's your computer that's slow, not TWS, it's the most advanced, fastest and reliable trading platform for retail traders.

@IBKR NO software because TWS that you provide is the worst, unusable software on the planet. Slow piece of sh*t. „Attempting to retrieve data” my a$$

@TickerTape31 @IBKR Yes! I really like @IBKR , but their platform has been degrading for a while. Support acts like they don’t know what you are talking about.

I did not think it was possible to find worse customer service than @IBKR until I encountered @krakenfx , they seem to be working on winning the "worst customer service" award from "Karen."

@IBKR I stop using TWS on for macOS, to slow, then I saw the “Apple Silicone build” and wow! …even worst!!

@Fidelity Yes, I understand advertised reason for changes. Bottom line as a customer, your margin rates are not competative to @IBKR . It is also unfair to have such large requirment increses on what is effectively a secured loan.. especially w/o even a message / notification of change.

@IBKR for the last 5 hours liquidity has disappeared for the pair $USDRUB, although MOEX is open for forex and other platforms have liquidity. When will you address the issue?
