Well lots of youtube videos encourage people to trade crypto with like 3-5x leverage so you have to expect when crypto drops any appreciable amount you get accounts liquidating equities to cover. But anyways IBKR reported this month, client margin loan balances of $80B which is 39% higher YoY

I’ve did this with tastytrade, they are a lot nicer to me as I have a way bigger account with them than with IBKR and in general the reps are a lot more accommodating. I do earnings a lot and sometimes the stock gaps up on AH trading, I then want to delta neutralise my long calls to capture the gap up. In situations like these, even when I don’t have enough margin left the customer reps calculate my new AH deltas together on with me and short those shares for me to capture the Gap and effectively close my position. Thereby overriding my margin, but they get that the position is delta neutral as many of them are options traders themselves. Kudos to you for understanding my situation and not just calling me regarded for doing this as I have options trading experience just not much with IBKR.

I like Robinhood for the UI. Speedy and easy. Doesn’t always have spread accuracy but I can deal with it. Schwab is absolute trash.

May eventually switch fully. But just not sure how good it is for quick day trades

Mentions:#IBKR

hahhaha I’m sorry for the word salad, was pretty mad yesterday about the Opportunity cost. Yes I think you understood perfectly what I was trying to do, I believe it was an unsettled funds issue here. I usually trade with Tasty and just moved to IBKR, tasty is more lenient especially when calling their amazing customer reps. OCC cutoff time is 5:30, IB only cuts of 5 min before that and yes basically SPY went deeper ITM past that, as you have pointed out already by then it’s too late. Still managed to get the first 100 shares and sell them on, now I have my second batch of 100 shares, wich I’m still holding. I also submitted a complaint ticket with IBKR to see if they’ll comp some fees out of goodwill.

Mentions:#IBKR#SPY

I understand your frustration. But SPY wasn't *deep* ITM until after the cutoff set by IBKR at 5:25pm, but of course enough to make exercising profitable. My guess is that you had insufficient margin to exercise. IBKR have very strict limits for margin, and unlike many other brokers, they don't issue margin calls, but start to automatically liquidate your positions once your margin requirement is breached (if I have understood this correctly). That you were able to exercise *one* may be due to either fluctuations in the price of SPY, or the fact that your first trade left a lot of unsettled cash/trades in your account, which may impact your margin somehow. But *please*, for the love of God, use punctuation! I'm gonna have to lay down for an hour to recover from reading your question without a single question mark.

Hi all, I am working on writing some calculators and was trying to decide what a good data provider would be to get options data. Looking for IV for specific contracts and the current price of the ticker. I am debating in my head whether the extra cost of polygon is worth it compared to using something like IBKR. I was hoping to hear some opinions/get some guidance. I can use yfinance to get the ticker price but I get rate limited because I am hitting a lot of tickers using concurrency methods in python. For options data, I am using polygon. I was annoyed to see that if I just want the ticker current price that it would be another $30 a month in polygon in addition the the options plan. I appreciate any help!

Nothing wrong with your strategy except maybe you not accounting for the amount of margin needed (likely cause of the failure to excercise) Are you saying tasty trade would let you exercise and auto liquidate because of insufficient margin?  Following to see what does IBKR say

Mentions:#IBKR

* Naked shorts. IBKR allows you to do so. * If you're interested in a specific short to stock, it's possible that it has a targeted inverse. For example NVDQ is 2x inverse NVDA, AXS is 1x inverse TSLA etc. * Go long on non-AI stocks (possibly with leverage). If AI crashes, it should drop more than others, and you can rebalance your position towards AI then to get it for cheap. * Sell calls on AI stocks you already own. I imagine you don't have the appetite to sell naked calls. Many ways of going about it, each with its unique risks. Good luck.

Try Schwab, tastytrade, IBKR. I have accounts with the first two and have never experienced that.

You’re right✅for a small Canadian account, the win is mechanics + data, and IBKR Canada (with paper trading) is the practical pick; Questrade’s per-ticket fee hurts small legs. Actionable flow: grab options history from Cboe DataShop (OPRA day files) or Polygon, store chains in Parquet/DuckDB, then compute IV rank/percentile by tenor/moneyness and expected move from the straddle. Filter for liquid names (OI > 500, spread < 10% of premium), simulate cash‑secured puts (15–25 delta, 30–45 DTE, 50% take‑profit) and defined‑risk verticals; include commissions, half‑spread slippage, and assignment risk. For execution, use mid with a 1–2 tick nudge and skip weeklies with wide spreads. Track implementation shortfall and only keep setups that survive it. I’ve used Snowflake for storage and Prefect for scheduling, and DreamFactory to expose the same features as REST to backtests and a lightweight dashboard.

Leaps on TSLA, GOOG, NVDA always worked for me. The only problem you face while closing these leaps is the ask/bid spread is too wide and often the orders are difficult to close unless you manually tweak the limit order price several times. Where you do check the liquidity? I use IBKR (I pay for the live data), but still I don't fully trust the open interests shown there.

Those October 2025 conversions increased the outstanding shares, not the float. Conversions create restricted shares that don’t hit the borrowable pool until the holders deposit them, margin them, and let brokers lend them out. That’s why Fintel/Ortex/IBKR still show a ~480k float, CTB is still 400–600%, short availability is still tiny, and Nasdaq’s 1.4M shares short still calculates to ~300% SI. If those 4.9M converted shares were actually in today’s float, SI would have already dropped to ~25% and borrow rates would have collapsed—but none of that happened. The dilution will matter after Dec 29 when Proposal 8 opens the faucet, but right now the tradable float is still micro, and that’s why this setup still exists.

How to calculate/see principal on which I pay interest? (IBKR) I have a positive cash balance, but also some short stock positions.

The interest overview just shows the interest rate and the principal amount per date but not how to calculate that amount.

Thank you! I also found the Probability Lab inside TWS (IBKR). ## TSLA For TSLA it shows a skew; higher probability for lower prices. https://ibb.co/dJ1Nn6W8 I played around with several strikes. Using Jan 2027 bear call spread (500-320) below: https://optionstrat.com/build/bear-call-spread/TSLA/-.TSLA270115C320,.TSLA270115C500 I notice that if the price remains unchanged, the spread results in a $1700 loss (-24% on the opening credit of $7200). That's quite a big loss if nothing happpens! The break even price is at $392 (-4.2%). This seems worse than short TSLA stock, which has a breakeven at +/-0%. ## GOOG GOOG seems to have a skew as well. https://ibb.co/j9V7r5WP But option strat shows a profit if price remains the same. https://optionstrat.com/build/bull-call-spread/GOOG/.GOOG270115C220,-.GOOG270115C340 GOOG spread looks better than the TSLA spread. Only cons are that upside is limited and price reacts slower due to <1 delta? I am interpreting that right?

how did IBKR come up with this fucking genius invention. '+' now adds 20 shares instead of 100. so i wonder why the hell i long 120 shares. so if i sell 200 shares, i suddenly am 80 shares short?! wtf.

Interactive Brokers is great if you want low fees, tons of markets, and more control but yeah, the interface is definitely more “professional” and less friendly than Revolut. There’s a learning curve, but once you set up your watchlists and default order settings it gets way easier. Most people I know who switched just did use IBKR Mobile at first (way simpler than the desktop app), keep trades basic (market/limit orders only), ignore the advanced features until you actually need them. Also, don't give into the hype around newsletters recommending brokers. People constantly ask “is Banyan Hill Publishing legitimate?”, and most of those marketing-heavy newsletters don’t tell you anything useful about picking a broker, even if they make recommendations here and ther.e If you want something more serious than Revolut, IB is a solid move once you get used to it.

Can I just ask an unrelated question? I see a lot of people talking about delta in a double digit range (0-100, I think). My broker (IBKR) and all tools I use, like OptionStrat, show delta as a decimal number between 0 and 1. When you say 10 delta, I assume you mean the same as they would call 0.100 delta? And you're not the only one. I just wonder where this "notation" comes from? And why I've never seen it outside of Reddit?

Yes, a Stocks and Shares ISA is the way to go, since all the profits are tax-free whether you buy UK shares / ETFs or US shares or ETFs. If you don't invest the money through a Stocks and Shares ISA, the profits will NOT be tax free. So, start by opening one for hiim and putting the money there. You can put it all in at once (instead of drip-feeding it into the ISA, DCA-style), and even leave it there untouched for months and months until you're sure what you want to invest in. Just because you've paid money into your ISA today doesn't mean you have to invest in right away; there's no rush. Yes, there's nothing wrong with leaving £20,000 untouched in the Stocks and Shares ISA until you're ready to actually invest in in specific stocks or funds. You can also invest just a little bit of it, and leave the rest there in cash for days, weeks, months or even years, while you decide how to invest the rest. Some Stocks and Shares ISAs will pay you interest on money in the ISA that hasn't been spent on funds or stocks. You may want to read up on that topic. When the money is finally in there, you can then decide whether to invest in in stocks through the ISA, or through funds through the ISA like VOO / VTI, etc. Or you can read the literature on some of the biggest Fund Management companies, e.g. Vanguard, decide whether high, medium or low risk is what you have in mind, and choose some of their ETFs accordingly, buying these ETFs via the ISA itself. If instead you leave the money in an ordinary bank account instead of investing it in an ISA, it will be worth much less after years have gone by than even if it had been invested in the lowest-risk funds. As you already know, this is due to inflation eating away at the cash. The markets are always zigzagging, so don't let fear of that prevent you from investing it in stocks. Choosing individual stocks has the greatest potential for profits, but also comes with the greatest risk. Also, you may or may not have the time to go poring over website after website, reading up on company reports and stock market news, ready to buy and sell your stocks whenever the wind changes, dipping in and out of the market. Some of us have that time and the know-how; but if you don't, then ETFs via the Stocks and Shares ISA is your best choice. ETFs are not all equal, as I alluded to earlier. If your ISA is opened via a bank, then they'll have a list of ETFs that they encourage ISA holders to invest in. But bear in mind that bank ISAs are often limited in terms of what those banks allow their ISA customers to invest in. But if the ISA is via a financial institution like Hargreaves Lansdown, IBKR, Interactive Investor and other non-banks, then they'll likely have a much longer list of ETFs from which you can choose. He is 20, so even if the markets crash, they will eventually recover unless there's a total apocalypse, in which case you'll have more important things to worry about. Plus, some industry sectors (defence, oil & gas, Consumer Staples, etc) are more resilient to market downturns than others depending on what caused the market to drop in the first place. So, there's nothing stopping you from choosing ETFs that prioritise companies in these sectors, if you wish to "play safe," bearing in mind that the more low-risk, the likely lower the profits will be long-term. But at least, you'll sleep peacefully at night. Good hunting!!!

I don't understand how to trade currency futures on IBKR. But if you can do that, it should work.

I mean if you know what you’re doing then you can get data thru the IBKR workstation api for basically free. But then you need to feed that to AI in a digestible manner, which you’d need a script for. Then spend the money on having AI analyze it.

I moved a part of my account into Webull from Robinhood for the 4% match. Kicking myself for not moving the whole thing. 4% is pretty substantial. I love the AI summary and other data. I think it is a good step up from Robinhood for a mobile first trader but I wish they would have fill probabilities closer to IBKR, Schwab. I guess that is wishing for too much.

IBKR or Trading212 is far better I could refer you to any of those if you are interested. If you want some more info on any of those, please do write me a message and I'll be glad to explain the difference. The basic one is that Trading 212 is more straightforward and easier to operate, while IBKR is more advanced and usually better for larger portfolios.

KDK. Reporting tomorrow after close. Short-interest up to 1.4mm~ shares @ 50%~ borrow-rate. The remaining available shares on IBKR (200-300k) were borrowed today, but likely in advance for tomorrow. Algos have been hitting the commons & warrants for weeks. No way MM has shares if all the monthly options go ITM, and a gamma squeeze would blow up the shorts. Someone's kicking this can down the road... 🤔 No predictions for tomorrow. We'll see how it plays out this week.

Is IBKR legit? Serious question

It’s missing a comma on a 5-figure gain. I have IBKR so easy to figure out screenshots that are fake.

Hi everyone. I’m a green beginner trying to understand what happens during trading. I’m using IBKR paper trading account. I bought SPY Nov10 ‘25 676 Put @ 1.16 Then closed the position @ 1.40 and it got filled. Mathematically should be $20 profit but my account went up $31. I can’t figure out why.
