IBKR the best imo.

    TWS is faster than IB desktop in loading charts on the same laptop.

  2. Desktop Portal? Do you mean Client Portal (web site)?

  3. No I'm using the new desktop platform. I came from TOS and imo IBKR desktop is superior. As a broker IBKR also has the lowest exchange rate when trading US stocks with Cad cash...I don't even bother doing the norbit gambit.

    The charts are trading view as well ..no comparison out there and I have tried multiple broker platforms.

    Why trade back to CAD once you are in USD?
    Does yout EW see the CAD gaining value, it's been in a down trend.
    Have you seen who is running the country?

  5. ? I don't bother changing to USD at all now. I used to do the Norbit Gambit to save on the exchange.

    I was under the impression you converted your US profits back to CAD.

    IBKR is a lousy broker for advisors.
    IBKR will allow your clients to skip paying you by cutting you out and can get away without paying you a single cents despite all the agreements.
