Reviews from actual traders
I like them but there graphing tools is a little to rigid
We are sorry to learn that your experience was unsatisfactory. The Advanced Chart contains whatever features TradingView has made available in their charting library that IBKR has licensed. As TradingView releases new versions of its library, we update our version to their latest version to ensure we get bug fixes and various item they add (in the charting library – but not necessarily their main platform). Here is a Traders’ Academy lesson on TradingView Advanced Charts in TWS you might find helpful. ibkrcampus.com/trading-lessons/tradingview-advanced-charts-in-tws/ If you are still having issues, please contact us at tradingviewsupport@interactivebrokers.com. We would appreciate the opportunity to turn around your experience
Find an easier alternative to TWS, please.
Rest is great
Thank you for sharing this. 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. ibkrcampus.com/ If you are still having issues, please contact us at tradingviewsupport@interactivebrokers.com so we can help. We look forward to serving you in the future.
It works most of the time, would be nice to remain logged in on both TWS and TV.
Thank you for sharing this. Unfortunately, due to system constraints and account security, clients can only have one open session per account. System constraints prevent competing sessions from being open concurrently. We’re sorry to hear about the connection issues you are experiencing. Disconnects could occur if you’re running IBKR’s application at the same time. If you are still having issues, please contact us at tradingviewsupport@interactivebrokers.com. We look forward to serving you in the future.
Bad, errors in closing order when it says cannot fill outside RTH. Can scale in or out of the same order. Scaling out of a position cancels the stop loss.
i like it.
can only connect one ticker at a time!!!
Excellent Broker
Used to be super slow and disconnect easily. The situation is visibly improving but it's not perfect yet (writing as of end of July). I wish the UI supported trail limit orders.
IB connects to all of my tools, saves me money on smart fills, highly secure 2 factor authentication, everything I've ever needed is here!! 4 years with IB and every reason to continue...
Good though sometimes I have had trouble connecting
I like the fact you can have multiple PT by entering multiple profit targets. It would get a 5 star review "IF" I could place PT / SL after a market order, but you cannot for some silly reason.
