No minimum balance required to open an account. Would really like it if TradingView integration was more stable. It keeps disconnecting from IBKR. I think this is more an issue with TV than with IBKR, however. Aside from that, TV needs to lower it's fees. SMH.
Integration to IBKR is great - would be even better if you enhance it to trade portfolios and options

you do maintenance EVERY sunday when the futures market opens. no brackets to move up stop loss
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.
Does not allow me to place stop order for many minutes after entering the trade keeping it at great risk because of high volatility in NQ futures. frequent disconnections.
We sincerely apologize for the critical issue you're experiencing with stop order placement delays. These technical problems significantly impact your ability to manage risk effectively in high-volatility trading situations. Please reach out to tradingviewsupport@interactivebrokers.com with details about these stop order delays and connection issues so we can investigate and resolve these problems immediately.
IBKR is full featured, and I use them because of their features like SMART routing and their margin accounts. However, their apps are clunky compared to some other brokerages I've used: I know they have tried to make it easier via their desktop app, but it isn't as good as the similar style Moo Moo app. For this reason, I much prefer executing my iBKR trades via TradingView, but I do wish that I could set trailing stop losses on TV.
Thank you for the positive feedback about our features like SMART routing and margin accounts! We're glad these core capabilities are valuable to your trading.We appreciate your honest assessment about our app interface and understand your preference for executing trades through TradingView. You might also want to explore our GlobalTrader app, which offers a different interface experience that could provide additional functionality and may better suit your preferences: interactivebrokers.com/en/trading/globaltrader/overview.php. Thank you for the constructive feedback; it helps us understand both our strengths and areas for improvement!
