interactivebrokers really screws up

O

oldtime

I'm not that worried about it

because the position I'm trying to get out of keeps moving in my favor

but I have tried everything

buying the ask

buying the market

and buying my limit which is well below the market

and they won't let me out

these guys are a bunch of jokers

what do they want me to do next?

call them on the telephone?
 
cancel and replace, they even pm'd me

try that

I have tried that many times

over and over

when are you finally going admit that I am doing it right

and you are screwing up?
 
it aint that serious

because the only one I have on that I want to get even on is some usd.cad

but still, they won't let me out

not at the market
not at at limit
not even selling limit bid
 
actually, it worked out pretty well for me

the only thing I had on I was trying to unloard was some long usd.cad

no matter how hard I tried, they wouldn't let me out of it

finally it turned into a profit

so it is of no concern to me at the moment

at anyrate, they really screwed up Sunday night

I do have a problem with some long GBP.USD

who knows if they will let me out of that one if I need to

I mean I tried everything

restarting and re logging on

selling at the ask

selling at the market

selling at my ridiculous bid 10 pips below the market

and that wouldn't let me out

I don't even know if they will let me out now

but it is showing a nice profit so I am not worried about it at the moment.
 
Old time,

I read that you trade 6E ? You have a profitable position and want to buy to
Close and cannot?
I am an IB customer. What do I need to know here?
What if the position was large and not in your favor?
Thanks.

Call them... who knows...With your luck, all those other orders you entered will probably show up on your clearing statement as filled creating an even bigger mess. lol

no I never trade 6e, just spot, and yes my size is plenty too large

and no, I wanted to get even on a loser

and it was exceeded by ten pips

and my BE limit wouldn't get hit

there were a lot of problems with ib on Sunday night

read the other threads

I was just telling you how it affected me

I'm not sure they are over yet
