get disconnected every now and then, quite annoying.
Great Third-Party Integration!
I like their products and research materials, etc but TWS is slooow and I find their interface pretty clunky (especially the "new" one).
We are sorry to learn that your experience was unsatisfactory. We are constantly improving and updating our platforms. Our flagship platform, the Desktop TWS is purposely designed as a spreadsheet as it's an interface most professional traders are accustomed to. You may want to try Mosaic, Client Portal or IBKR Mobile for a more contemporary user interface. We encourage our clients to review IBKR Campus. Here you can learn about trading, financial markets, and Interactive Brokers trading tools. https://ibkrcampus.com/ . If you are having issues, please contact us at tradingviewsupport@interactivebrokers.com. We look forward to serving you in the future.
Descent fees, filling times could improve a little bit, nice broker so far.
super slow integration
Love them, except for their charting platform. not user friendly, nor year 2022 level. great fills, great support.
paper trading account does not work with trading view
This is an excellent choice especially for international customers. They have very competitive fees (their Lite account with 0 commission doesn't give access to TWS software so I am not taking it into consideration for active trading) For beginners their Pro account with fixed fees seems to be best choice. More experienced traders can choose tier level schedule.
Of course you need to pay extra for real time data but that's basically same thing with ever other broker. You are looking at something around 50$ per month.
It seems that there is an issue with TradingView integration as it is choppy and buggy according to other users. At the moment there is no Lvl 2integration for DOM tool.
i like the platform , but the tradingview integration seems not ready yet , a lot of bugs and glitches and this could be dangerous for traders that needs to make quick decisions
Great
Wish it was a little more user friendly. Probably have to get used to it I don't know.
very slow login
IBKR is a great broker, using it for many years. However, the TV connection is very slow, sometimes disconnects out of the blu. The position price shows on chart higher than the price at which the shares were bought (avg price in the table). Can't set Good till cancel type to be default. Overall a promising broker connection, but there are still issues to be solved.
good broker for daytraders in general, most days works ok, not for smallcap shorters...for that, there are better brokers out there
