@IBKR @SteveSosnick Thomas is asking “why isn’t everybody on our platform? […] I don’t know”. Well let me answer that for you: other brokers offer better service for their clients for the same $$ eg provide a useable, FAST trading platform. TradingWorkStation is a GARBAGE.

@LukeWolgram @puppyeh1 @IBKR Depends, when delisting occurs you are liable for the margin rate + cash consideration until shares are cancelled. In 'uncoverable' events margin rates can get to ridiculous 1000%+ levels, so people cover shorts, stock goes up above 'fair value' i.e. longs sell, so rates go down.

@IBKR Wanna know how to get more people to IBKR? Offer an actual direct to market solution without order flow delay or routing orders to Citadel.

@hyperconvexity @IBKR Can't possibly be as bad as @CharlesSchwab app. Took me 27 minutes (!!!) to execute a spread trade the other week which cost me almost $1000 in the time to get it done. The most glitchy, slow, unreliable app ever. In case you were looking to change...look elsewhere.

I helped someone sell their rip-off mutual funds and buy equivalent ETFs on @IBKR instead. Fees before: entry 5.00%, annual 2.01%, exit 3.00%, performance 10% #WTF Fees after: annual fee is 0.07%, buy/sell 0.05% Be careful with mutual funds offered by sales people at banks.

the @IBKR has the money to throw payment for order flow under the bus (cuz they want you to pay them commissions, which is stupid) but they dont have the money to build a brand new trading platform...

@IBKR You guys are really bad, your damn bad system, stop lying, quickly adjust my aapl average price to the original 162, not 172.53, you have already caused me to lose money, if you don't deal with it, I will resort to the law and accuse you of fraud.

@IBKR @SteveSosnick Lmao “IB platforms the best?” You gotta be kidding Thomas. IB can’t even provide a fast working trading software for their clients. TWS is a joke and you can’t even fix basic problems. IBKR is getting worse and worse

@GCC_Trader @IBKR Broker that’s wouldn’t allow you to login when you need it or that deletes the trade history in my mobile app at close every single day and has staff that is clueless and speaks Indian English only is useless.

@IBKR When are you going to offer a usable trading software to your clients? TWS is a slow,medieval software.

@IBKR Fix your goddamn TWS. Charts are loading too slow. “Attempting to retrieve data” my ***. Current price label is not loading most of the time. What kind of garbage are you providing for your clients.

@YahooFinance @IBKR @ThomasPeterffy4 agreed, however there is nearly zero chance the countries ( almost any) in the world could support the interest payments on their deficits at even half that rise and still have a currency that could buy dirt.. just sayin'...
