Reviews from actual traders
Happy they work with TradingView
The number one brokerage firm in the WORLD.HAPPY HOLIDAYS GUYS YOU DESERVE IT...
This broker is awesome and my all time favourite, but there indian branch is suck.
All you could want
So far so good, impressed by the order panel being able to offset your orders by a preset amount from wherever you enter at. This is similar to Ninja Trader but I use Tradingview for my charting so its nice to be able to have everything all in one place.
my disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined
Should be able to buy and sell options quicker. Great though!
MANY POP UPS. Just do one time per year.
New trader here so take this with a grain of salt. It is a learning curve to figure out how to trade and understand how everything works together. IBKR has fantastic educational videos and the best part is that the trading fees are very low. Recommended
Customer service- long waits to no response. If you have an issue during the day, you will not get any support. I went back to TradeStation.
Takes a little getting used to, but otherwise a really good broker for trading view.
can't trade gold
Very unpolished. UI needs to be more streamlined and intuitive. Think or Swim is way better.
thanks
Execution is fast, customization is abundant and fees are low. The enforcement of Rule 144 however, is illogical when it comes to day trading small cap stocks. The enforcement will allow you to buy stock but if you try to sell it even 5 minutes later and if you're selling more then 1% of the 30 day average volume or float they will restrict your sale pending a review which can take up to 1.5 hours. It doesn't make sense to have your trade locked if you buy a stock and try to sell it 5 minutes apart on the same day. No other broker enforces the rule like this and it costs day traders 10's if not 100's of thousands of dollars potentially.
I like everything except the enforcement of Rule 144 because I day trade small cap stocks.
easy to use and great broker
Nice to have everything on one platform.
Its good but they've got a lot of rules, pre-market 1% rule where they charge per share, they also are very aggressive on the 144 SEC Rule where you could be locked into a trade, Margin ends at 3:30pm est which resulted in a huge nightmare loss. If they could get these unnecessary things fixed it would be a 5 star broker.
