Honestly, the integration with Trading View is not of the quality. If I am already paying for live data and I login with Interactive Broker credentials, why should I pay an additional fee for data. No thank you.
does not show realized p/l
Overall responsive. There are times when modifying / removing an order takes a bit more time to process.
Thank you for taking the time to provide us with feedback!
The Level 2 and Level 1 market data is not working all the time as it should in DOM. It has the biggest reach in ETH also if you are searching for smaller stocks
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear you appreciate our extensive reach for ETH and smaller stocks. Regarding the Level 2 and Level 1 market data issues in the DOM, we cannot discuss account details on this forum. Please contact us at reviews@interactivebrokers.com so we can investigate this issue.

It often blows past my stop loss without closing my position . And needing to re authenticate the broker every time I open the app gets old
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.

Brokers provide access to financial markets and execute trades. They act as intermediaries between traders and exchanges, providing the necessary infrastructure and tools to place buy and sell orders. They offer services such as order execution, market access, research, analysis, and customer support. Additionally, brokers facilitate the use of leverage, margin trading, and help ensure regulatory compliance, providing traders with a secure environment to trade effectively. Without brokers, individual traders would struggle to access markets and execute trades efficiently.
An order is an instruction for a broker to execute a trade - buy or sell an asset on behalf of a trader. Depending on your strategy, risk tolerance, and market condition, different kinds of orders can be more or less effective, let's see the basic ones.
- Market order. It's a basic type designed to buy or sell an asset immediately at the next price available
- Limit order. Specifies the maximum (for buying) or minimum (for selling) price at which a trader is willing to execute a trade. It's only executed if the price reaches the preset level. There are buy and sell limit orders - they're set to buy/sell an asset at or below/above a certain price
- Stop order. Triggered when an asset moves above or below a certain price level, always executed in the direction that the price is moving. There are stop-loss orders (automatically closes a position at a certain level if the market moves against you) and (initiates a trade when the price breaks a certain level)

A broker's rating on TradingView is based on its clients' reviews. We ensure broker ratings reflect real user experiences by allowing reviews only from verified TradingView users with active linked accounts. Recent ratings carry more weight, providing up-to-date insights for informed decisions. This approach promotes transparency and prevents manipulation. Make sure to rate your broker to help it improve its service and assits other users in their choice.
Leverage is a mechanism that allows traders to open larger positions with a smaller amount of capital. It basically means borrowing funds from a broker, often multiplying your position size by 5x, 10x, or more. For example, with 5x leverage, a $100 deposit could open a $500 trade with your broker lending you $400 you don't have. It's a popular technique, but remember that while leverage increases potential profits, it also magnifies losses, which is why it's essential to learn how to manage risks.
It's always worth preparing for trades before actually executing them. On TradingView, you can do this with our Paper Trading functionality.

Margin trading means an investor buying an asset by borrowing the balance from a broker. It allows traders to increase their buying power, enabling larger positions with less upfront capital. While it can provide greater market exposure with less capital and amplify potential gains, it also comes with increased risks:
- Increased risk of losses, including exceeding initial investment
- Interest costs on borrowed funds
- Potential for margin calls requiring additional deposits
Make sure to analyze an asset thoroughly and test your strategy on a Paper Trading account to ensure you're ready to navigate these risks.
