Stop Order Not Honored

Discussion in 'Interactive Brokers' started by asaladaaa, Nov 24, 2020.

  1. I am getting lots of order execution problem with IB, I believe it is server issues, all the stop loss order on a SSR stock did not get filled, so the problem is when we open buy order and stop loss market order is considered as Short Sale, this is really WRONG.

    This has caused too much losses.

    A big broker with so many problems :(

    If the buy order is not filled then the sell stop order is a short sale

    lol you are being educated with real money cause you didn't take the time to understand what you're doing in the first place. not the brokers fault - your fault face it.

    Complaining will affect your trading negatively.
    Be smart and Let other traders do the complaining.


    There are hundreds of big brokers in this world.
    Simply open another trading account
    and see if you get a better result.

    Stop losses don't always work. When a million people have the same SL at the same price, who do you think should get the money if there's not enough liquidity?

    Make your stop losses loser, or if you can do a market sell stop loss even better. Or use phone alert.
