The identity of the broker owner has been hidden. There is a valid reason for this, because spammers use this information to send emails to broker owners. Unfortunately, this also makes it difficult to identify the owner. If the broker does show his true identity, we prefer it. When we analyzed the reviews, we found that the reviews were very positive or negative. We have seen this pattern on several scam brokers. Scammers buy fake reviews to hid...
I have been using them for 3 years without any problems. Very advanced trading platform that can be customized to do just about anything you want. Lowest rates and ability to trade just about everything out there.
Many people are happy with IB because of there low rates! But I do not know many others! I am very happy with their service!
I think is a good company. Is my third trial in electronic trading and I fill satisfied. The working station is just fine but I fill more comfortable using an Excel API interface. For me was a plus to find good API tutorials, material and even an Excel worksheet ready to use and to customize for my trading needs. Since my beginners point of view I think the commissions and spreads are very good. There are a couple of guys in tech support very professional and efficient, particularly a Spanish speaker lady – Mrs. Elizabeth – located in Switzerland. Personally I recommend her if you don’t speak English fluently. But in the other hand, sometimes the tech support takes to much time to answer and/or the answers are not really useful.
One of the best FX-brokers I worked with. Low spreads and commissions. High liquidity even during high volatile news times. (but spreads widens during that time) the API I use for a full mechanical trading system. Very robust. I never had a major problem with the executions. The negatives: terrible trading platform and P&L control. No hedging capability. No max deviation for market orders. Server shuts down from 5-5:15 h.
I've been using IB since may 2007 for trading mini-indexes and forex.TWS is quite convenient tool.Good spreads and prompt fills,but not at news announcments,low commissions, however unobtrusive customer service spoils overall image.
