This is the first time I have sat down and honestly attempted to learn how to utilize this new activity for beginning a insane new path for me to accomplish success in my financial independence from the 65 hours a week of Industrial commercial and Automotive painting. I believe that I just had the abstract concepts aligne unpack and absorb now I'm going to continue to get far more knowledge from you plus other's yet your Communication Skills, Repoir, Vocabulary Flow are all within the margins of mastery yet the pace pitch and volume could be adjusted by meer micro fractions slower balanced and lower. (Micro fractions) otherwise your extremely good at conveying your thoughts into words as others and understand exactly what you are describing. Good Luck with your Journey and your future endeavors. Thank you for your time and effort teaching this concept may you have everything you need and may you delay your wants in order to prevent waste.

Good video. There is a significant lag between prices displayed on TWS and TRV no matter what plan you have. Hence, it is more difficult to trade volatile markets on TRV. Stops can be sniffed out instantly by bots by the time you confirm orders on TRV. TRV is best for higher time frame strategies. Better yet, keep a TRV window as a reference window on aside, for higher time frame (>3min) strategies, choose your entry/exit points on a lower time frame in TWS Chart Trader, and execute the orders via hot-keys. TRV hot keys CTRL-B (buy) CTRL-S (sell), which will place market orders after a confirmation prompt, followed by ENTER can speed up the entry/exit orders from TRV but quote lags can still burn you. You can also use price differentials by setting Ask-x or Bid+x where x is the number of ticks above bid or below ask in order to not get immediately caught by a bot sweep, but the settings are not sticky, which is very annoying.

Very informative as always. I tend to use the Advanced Charts in IBKR (using the Beta installation) as they are basically the TradingView style charts with less indicators. Although there are a few bugs, it sure beats using those antiquated default charts.

[danielschun]

One thing i noticed is that there is no stop loss triggered during pre market hrs can you confirm that? And that is what you talked about right?

Please do a video on automating buy and sell orders from a Tradingview indicator strategy. So basically a trading bot that can run while away from pc.

[KpxUrz]

Very good and thorough explanation. Much appreciated. I am a profitable day trader (every day profitable!), but have been dealing with another broker whose order process is clunky and quite delayed. Am ready to make a change.

Is it any big deal if I subscribe to Tradingview's market data to trade through IBKR?

[saperkausytasy]

I cannot trade Forex on Tradingview once logged in via my IBKR account (Indices and stocks I can). Error says that this symbol is not tradeable. Customer support does not help. Do you have an idea what can be the reason for that?

[M-Aatif]

Can anybody recommend me just a name from where I can learn 'basic trading' and 'IBKR interface' Thanks everybody.

[danielschun]

Can you trade pre market hours with TradingView connected to IB ?

[TimingInTime]

Hi Chris, Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom with all of us. I am very new to the investment market. I have open an account with IB and deposited just $300. I have follow your videos for months about how to set up Charts and other fixtures there. All of that to find very difficult to place orders. I am not sure if is due to my limited knowledge on how to navigate the task in hand. Question: for beginners, should I give up IB platform and open a new account in another broker? or should I continue trying to do it via Tradingview or IB? I am getting really frustrated and not knowing what to do. I really appreciate your channel and I like your videos every time I view them. Thank you in advance.!

[imanelamzaiti]

Great video. 2 Q: 1) after the limit order triggers, can you still change the SL and TP? 2) same after placing a market order, can you modify it? Thanks

[danielschun]

If you trade during pre-market hrs stop losses are not going to trigger instead you need to get out by selling fast that is your stop loss not by setting it up as a stop loss right?

[soldbykaran]

finally eh!!! however options not supported.

Very Good Question: Do you think you could trade EFT's and fractional shares ??? using Interactive Broker and Tradingview
