With fast moving stocks even with good execution without at least 0.25 cent offset they can be hard to catch sometimes. 0.05 cents might not be enough but if you attempted it 5 times than that is more likely an execution issue. In your case, I would just stick with pro. (That goes for me as...

Take away the mental aspect and everyone believes they have an edge or million dollar formula.

Not all level 2 have luld. Never used tradestation so I wouldn't know. But if it does you'll see it in the level 2.

I am leaning more towards alternative platform coding. You get what you paid for ($20 a month) Will be switching to a more expensive option in the near future.

At least, take the time to actually read and understand my post before making condescending comment. I bought 1 share at market and attempted to sell 1 share at market. Look at the screenshot 1st trade was filled at $42.14, the 2nd and 3rd market orders to sell didn't go thru. Finally the 4th...

Indeed, they overcomplicate things and too much unnecessary clutter. Their charts are so 90's style. For a broker of their reputation their software is quite outdated. I am thinking if I should just go back to tradezero. The only thing I like about IBKR is the 35 cent minimum order instead of...

Your order is not accepted because your equity with loan value is insufficient to cover the initial margin of $2000. Why did I get this message? I was trying to sell 1 share, not short it. The loss means nothing, I was just killing time waiting for deposit. It's just annoying how IBKR keeps...

If lite can use Dastrader as well to override the things they lack in TWS than there is really no point of pro. In this case, they need to restructure their commissions for pro otherwise every pro user will must migrate to lite.

His job conveniently keeps him from being fkd daytrading by forcing a 30 min limitation.

That's unfortunate. I believe the free trial is already the full version so paying for subscription isn't gonna change that. You can try switching and see if the chart shows 1 second interval. If it does than you're already on the premium plan. You can always use webull between 4am-6am? Then...

Yes, I am not sure if it shows premarket in the early wee hrs 4am-6am. If that's what you need you should try their free trial first or confirm with someone who has a pro+ plan. Did you turn on the option for extended hours in the settings?

If you have crappy routing broker the MM's will take advantage and give you terrible fill. I use tradezero and put a stop-market on a ticker and it stopped me below the bid by 10%.

Free account is just missing full data when you switch to a shorter timeframe all you see is a bunch of flat doji lines and no premarket data. It's ok if you just wanna trade off the 1h or daily.

You can try out their monthly plan first? I believe they have a free trial for each plan. https://www.tradingview.com/gopro/?share_your_love=Gotherl I don't actually use tradingview myself but if you signup for a paid plan using my referral we both get $30 for tradingview. Might as well if you...

You just have to download the demo and see for yourself. Personally, I found IB charts to be of no use. They're ugly and difficult to handle. I liked webull charts way better. But nothing beats Tradingview charts.

It is usually a bad idea to trade most stuff between those times. But I can name multiply instances where a ticker ran after the 11am buying period. Take IMRN on June 9th. It dipped and went from $6 -$28 between 10:30am-3pm.

Open an offshore account if you wanna bypass the pattern daytrading rule. And forex is 24/7. I don't think pattern daytrading applies to forex. (I am not exactly sure though.)

IB's UI is not intuitive at all. It's terrible actually. (You've to supplement it with a 3rd party platform.) Their commission of 0.0035 is misleading. The actual price can range from 0.0035-0.01 per share. For example, I was charged 0.97 and $1 for the buy/sell for 5 shares of CARV. But on...

Pro not lite.

So what are the advantages does Pro have over Lite? Trying to stay positive here... PRO Faster Execution DMA routing trading starts at 4am 3rd party platform support Lite Slower execution? Non-DMA routing. Trading starts at 7am No Das Trader support or not? (This one would be the dealbreaker...
