Reviews from actual traders
very bad i cant trade currencies on tradingview whats the point i am cutting ties with this broker thats the one feature i wanted, i aint even gonna give it any star imma give you one star just because you regulated
Great responsiveness. Just watch out when you modify orders, you need to commit or else. Nothing else is possible unless you finalize either way the modification. Also, adding a connected stop loss order to an open position is a bit tricky and unless you are careful, you may end up having a separate order that gets executed in any case
Thank you for the great feedback on our responsiveness! When initiating a new position, you can attach stop loss and profit orders within the initial order. For executed orders, we're currently working with TradingView to address this limitation. This isn't an issue on IBKR's native platforms, where bracket orders can be submitted anytime. If you encounter any challenges, please email tradingviewsupport@ibkr.com with details so we can help directly. We're constantly improving based on valuable feedback like yours and appreciate the opportunity to enhance your trading experience. Thanks for your patience and for choosing our platform!
Great resources available through their website, great apps for mobile and pc, stable technical platform, and low fees. Works seamlessly with TradingView.
Frequent disconnects and slow oder execution, which can be very costly when using their services for day trading.
Fees are very low and access to the main markets is ensured. My only grief is probably around ETFs selection and the compatibility for ETF trading with TradingView. Sometimes I had to go on the IBKR platform itself to buy ETFs when they were not tradeable on TradingView, which means maintaining two platforms.
it keeps disconnecting all the time even when i am ready to trade.
So the connection is not stable and it is not the internet provider.
Would have been much better if trailing stop orders can be used.
Thank you for reaching out! When initiating a new position, you can attach a stop loss and profit order within the initial order. But if that initial order has already been executed, then they are currently addressing a limitation with TradingView. This is not an issue if you use IBKR’s trading platforms, as you can submit bracket orders anytime. If you have problems, please email us with further details to tradingviewsupport@ibkr.com so we can assist.
I really appreciate the integration with Tradingview and IBKR, But it is frustrating that I can only be logged into one platform at a time, either IBKR or Tradingviiew. It would be much better if both the tradingview connection and the IBKR app could work simultaneously.
only one pasrallel connection and in tradingview i cannot see the P?L of closed transactoins..
excellent trading platform . customer service is poor.
Easy to use and powerful. I wish I could enter in my portfolio and have it track my P&L. I should need a separate service for this.
When I set take profit and stop loss orders overnight, none of them ever get filled. this has happened 100% of the time so it's not a glitch. I've lost over $500 because of this. Another problem with this brokers integration with Tradingview is that you can't drag take profit and stop loss orders from your entry and once your limit order is filled, the stop loss and take profit orders just show up as buy or sell limits instead of the dollar amount like every other broker offers.
We are sorry to learn that your experience was unsatisfactory. When initiating a new position, you can attach a stop loss and profit order within the initial order. But if that initial order has already been executed, then they are currently addressing a limitation with TradingView. This is not an issue if you use IBKR’s trading platforms, as you can submit bracket orders anytime. If you have problems, please email us with further details to tradingviewsupport@ibkr.com so we can assist. We would appreciate the opportunity to turn around your experience.
Very low fees, extremely weak platforms
The best investment platform ever, with super low commission rate compared to other brokers that I know. I can recommend it to anyone anytime. Good work, IBKR
Reports on futures are too hard to understand -- how about converting them to dollars. To much nickle and diming around data feeds, snapshots etc. You charge commission that should be enough. Complexity of trader work station, poor customer support, long wait times on the phone.
Thank you for your feedback — we understand your concerns and appreciate you taking the time to share them. Market data fees are set by the exchanges themselves and passed through without markup. We do strive to keep overall costs low and many of our commissions remain among the most competitive in the industry. That said, we recognize that a complex platform and long wait times can be frustrating. We’re continuing to invest in both platform usability and customer support to improve the overall experience. Your input is valuable, and it helps guide where we focus our efforts. Please don’t hesitate to reach out directly if there’s anything specific we can assist you with.
Amazing and seamless connection to TradingView with a plethora of security protocols available, ie multi-device authorization
The broker is great, but it makes me reconnect many many times per day.
