    After 2 years finally leaving garbage @Questrade for @IBKR , questrade was killing me with all those fees and slow executions

    If anyone knows any good #brokers let me know! Send me more bad ones. Biggest bad actors r @CharlesSchwab @IBKR @WebullGlobal I wonder what they all have in common?? Anyone! No jury is going to have any sympathy. And we will make sure the judge isnt affliated either :)

    @ProfitsTaken @IBKR I have signed up within the past week with no issues

  • AndrewL33582005 due diligence smash. I do the best I can on DD (@AndrewL33582005) reported

    @IBKR @CoinMarketCap wrong circulation which you did not fix still. $shib During a recent interview on the UpOnly Podcast, Buterin said that in May 2021 anonymous developers sent him 505 trillion SHIB tokens, which were worth $8 billion at the time. it should be at 495 trillion. fact

  • HaniWithAnI Hani Chaaban (@HaniWithAnI) reported

    .@IBKR why does it take 4 days to fix a bug on your portal? Stuck behind uncompletable "Non-Professional Questionnaire" for 4 business days now. Hilariously bad Time-To-Mitigate for such a large firm. Unable to transfer assets or do basically anything other than basic trades.

  • ProfitsTaken ProfitsTaken (@ProfitsTaken) reported

    Anyone else sign up to @IBKR recently? Any other issues? My bigger gripe is the idea of chat being down / voice being slow? Any others?

  • financialbanter ً (@financialbanter) reported

    Why does @IBKR desktop platform look like **** from 1990? Why cant they pay UI/UX devs to fix this crap with the money they have. I mean it literally looks like an old windows computer.

  • csilvamusiced Charlie Silva (@csilvamusiced) reported

    @IBKR Note to new users: if you move countries for work and get a new cell phone # .. expect to have a ridiculous hard and frustrating time to find a way to get a hold of a person so you can get proof of identity to update your phone number so you can sign in... MY MONEY!!!

  • Ppii1210 N (@Ppii1210) reported

    @IBKR Dears, For your kind support, I transferred a money from Saudi National Bank to interactive Broker in 30,Jan 2022 , but it is still not received on my account in interactive Broker . Best Regards

  • vikas_aditya Vik (@vikas_aditya) reported

    @IBKR what kind of useless apps you have where simultaneous login on web and mobile is not possible?? What kind of stupid product people you have hired??

  • SarPasTrade SarPas (@SarPasTrade) reported

    @IBKR Hello. Still trying to contact your customer service but I am not sure if someone is still working there. Any other way to contact you?

    @NathanEYates @IBKR Wash sales are not a thing in crypto. You can sell, book a tax loss and immediately buy back. Assuming network fees don't overcome your tax benefits.

    @IBKR Defund your local economy with Global Investments! Why make your local community better when you can support the capitalistic need to exploit poverty on a global level!

  • danyamohr Danya (@danyamohr) reported

    @ProfitsTaken @IBKR I just did it this morning. It’s a bit of a process and I was able to get someone on the chat to talk through it. The chat response was slow and seemed a bit overloaded. Good news is I passed the Options test! Got approved for trading.

  • evantindell Evan Tindell (@evantindell) reported

    Please like or retweet if you agree so that @IBKR knows what a terrible decision this would be. We would have to consider moving all of our clients off the platform.

  • DiamondApe8 ⭕️ DiamondApe 69 ⭕️ (@DiamondApe8) reported

    @741trey @IBKR @Fidelity wtf are you doing to your own customers?

  • nirav175 nirav patel (@nirav175) reported

    @Trading212 you seem to be the worst trading platform for OTC imposing “Temporary” buy restrictions for penny stocks 1yr ago to avoid risk of being suspended by the @SEC_Enforcement & being cut off by @IBKR. Yet you keep adding more penny stocks creating more risk

  • small_exchange the SMALL exchange (@small_exchange) reported

    @JohnNickle @IBKR Hey, John! Small Futures Options should be available at IBKR currently. They say, "The best way for a customer to access help is through Trader Workstation," if that is any help. Please, reach out to their support if you are having trouble accessing them. Thanks for your support!

  • vikas_aditya Vik (@vikas_aditya) reported

    @IBKR how long it’s take to have an account opened? It’s literally been months ot waiting. What kind of support IBKR has?

  • ProfitsTaken ProfitsTaken (@ProfitsTaken) reported

    @IBKR Seems they don't have DM enabled. Understandable. Possible solution; seems ad blockers disable live chat for some.

  • ProfitsTaken ProfitsTaken (@ProfitsTaken) reported

    @Vice4Stocks @IBKR On a new tab (I call it a canvas) you should have the add window in the top left corner. Also make sure you're unlocked. I can't imagine why that would change for Canada. Anyone else have this issue?

  • macrodelics Macrodelics (@macrodelics) reported

    Unrealized p&l % I mean. PERCENTAGE. I can organize by the unrealized p&l amount, which is worthless to me. Please fix this @IBKR
