I have issues with this platform since it does not let the order go through for a simple stock even though I am not buying on margin. It’s frustrating since I am not able to trade with my own money too..
Orders are not going through stating a margin change for some reason even though i have 14k more than the 25k PDT min. Getting difficult to trade daily...
connection disconnected regularly
Deposits and withdraws take way too long to settle, broker fees are high
Crazy high margins for futures, can’t set buy/sell stops to BE effectively on the platform to manage position Poor
We’re sorry to hear your experience was unsatisfactory. When opening a new position on TradingView, you can attach a stop loss and profit order within the initial order. However, once that order has been executed, TradingView currently has a limitation that prevents adding bracket orders afterward. This issue does not apply to IBKR’s trading platforms, where bracket orders can be submitted at any time. If you encounter any problems, please email us at tradingviewsupport@ibkr.com so we can assist. We appreciate the opportunity to improve your experience.
Very comprehensive Desktop App. Very Comprehensive educational videos. More features than the average trader knows what to do with. But, it is unintuitive when you need, or want to learn about features. One has to search through a labyrinth of information to find what you are looking for. Lastly, it would be very nice if there was an easier way to make contact with a human.
Thank you for your detailed feedback. We appreciate your recognition of our comprehensive desktop app and educational resources. For learning about specific features, we recommend visiting IBKR Campus at interactivebrokers.com/campus/, where content is organized by topic for easier navigation. If you're looking for more direct assistance or have specific suggestions about improving feature discoverability, please email reviews@interactivebrokers.com. We value your insights as we continue to enhance both our platform and support accessibility.
