It seems maybe someone who could not have opened an account directly does so through a 3rd party in US. Then since the person from overseas does all the tradings, IB picks it up....simply that although legit but IB is avoiding any potential problems.
This is more examples of IBKRs problems. I know that other brokers such as Tradestation wouldnt do this to you.
for some reason the OP is not telling us what country the alernate login was located in? what country was it? whats the big secret?
Hello, I have exactly the same problem, IB terminate and IB don't give ANY explanation! Crazy. We are going to fill an official complaint against them, no choice. What do you think ?
Just nonsense and wasting your time. (and money) You do not have the constitutional right to be a customer. If someone does not want to have you as a customer there is nothing you can do about it.
I am French, I have been a customer with them for 5 years. No problem whatsoever, no question from them. Opening accounts and they say ok, all is right. And then one day, they say, we close, we have no explanation, you can t do anything, please liquidate and go away. I have no right to anything ? You sure ?
