Interactive Brokers Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Panos Iliopoulos (@Panos_Iliop) reported@IBKR I bet extraordinary volatility was alright when retail investors were down. ****** preposterous. I'm already looking into alternatives, enough is enough.
-
Brian Lang (@BrianLa12398618) reported@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR It's almost certainly a liquidity issue. And that should scare anyone away from either.
-
Muhammad Jawad Iqbal Khan (@Muhamma31273647) reported@IBKR @MrZackMorris @ripster47 if everyone hold their stocks and shorts are required to post 300% margin, it magnifies the problem for short and price should shoot up.
-
HoldingsSelect (@HoldingsSelect) reported@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR Robinhood sells order flow to Citadel and Citadel shut them down
-
lcw (@lcw80394760) reported@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR The game is rigged. Guarantee you that institutional and HFT money have no problem trading these names today.
-
Connor Reddick (@ConnorReddick) reported@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR I’m guessing they don’t have the cash to trade at this scale. They’ve already been in trouble in the past for using user funds to pay out positions for other customers.
-
The Money Monkey (@The_Money_Monke) reported@keyboardspam @IBKR @public I was literally in the process of deciding between IBKR and Public after RH decided to **** everyone over. Is it really THAT far fetched of a story right now?
-
Sean (@seanswan) reported@IBKR Awful. Get ready to join Robinhood, TDA, Schwab in the class action suit. Citadel apparently has you guys by the ***** too. What a shame. You think Reddit is manipulating the market? They have nothing on you. These companies ALL need to sue!
-
Reid Fraser (@ReidEFraser) reported@IBKR @RobinhoodApp @TDAmeritrade are literally begging for class action lawsuits by forcing people to only be able to sell. A “problem” that likely would have gone away on its own they just made worse by making themselves targets.
-
Trader Mike (@TraderMike9) reported@IBKR Worst brokerage ever! How much are hedge funds paying you guys to do this?
-
Denys (@tradermacro) reported@IBKR wtf is wrong with you? what risk do you bare if customer wants to buy puts/calls? we can lose only what we paid! restrict option selling, why buying too?
-
Spittinfactsyo (@spittinfactsyo) reported@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR It’s not investing, it’s speculation and gambling and their intent was to help people who don’t have access to the market get access to it. Despite their name, they don’t actually want to steal from the rich
-
Joe (@itsJoeCool22) reported@mcuban @RobinhoodApp @IBKR They have a habit of doing this. Did the same thing during the crash in March. They have a habit of freezing transactions when it behooves them.
-
ghettosupertsar (@ghettosupertsar) reported@IBKR Closing down my IBKR account. Clearly, we were chumps for thinking we lived in capitalist, free market society.
-
Lawrence Wu (@llllvvuu) reported@IBKR This is really shameful @IBKR. There is no reason to shut down DEFINED-RISK trades in order to bail out funds that engage in UNLIMITED RISK trades with NO RISK MANAGEMENT, let alone engage in #MarketManipulation
