TD Ameritrade down

Phone broker said he can't even manually put trades through.
Nice.
My balance? 0.
Welcome to the tech age.
This is why I don't like to hold overnight, sheesh.
I'm not a paranoid person, but when markets seem to be breaking AND the small guy can't trade, it makes me go hmmmm.
The rich get richer
I just get frustrated.

Okay they're back... for now.
I learned a good lesson today.
Like when my internets went down one day...
That one hurt.

Sounds like you had some "issues" with your account that were your responsibility and you were unaware of them. Don't just blame it on your broker.

I have both, and a few other brokers and I can tell you profession traders don't use IB.
