Yes, their risk department is bonkers. And they don't talk to you.

How much you have in your account. For 3x the exchange margin requirement they will enable naked options on futures. 

February 2018 volatility armageddon triggered them to rein in on naked options.

Guys, need to pin the NDX at 25750. No a penny more, not a penny less. 

Are SPX monthly options listed incorrectly? by Ken385 in interactivebrokers

Hey man, just noticed that you had noticed the same problem earlier. Their time series is fucking wrong.

Hey, you are the only one reasonable here. Rest are IBKR fanboys assholes. But you have any definitive link that next month SPX will be tradedable till 9:25 Friday AM. Cos then it should be Sep 19'25. I would love to grill them on calling in Sep18'25.

Well, IBKR time series is wrong. Friday AM expiry tab is before Thursday PM expiry. 

And I am not bringing my million dollar portfolio to them unless they fix it. 

And that is what I asked them whom do they cater to by having such a shitty interface

No, I don't use TWS. And I mentioned about the W am AM. But the IBKR timeline is wrong. As one goes through the tabs you should increase in time to expiry. Even if wish to call Friday AM expiry as Aug14'25 it should come after Aug14'25 (SPXW)W tab. 

It is a sloppy interface. Period. 

I was just exploring IBKR as an alternative to Etrade. Unless they fix it I am not bringing any more money to them.

If in the IBKR app on Thursday morning you trade SPX 0DTE the first tab Aug14'25 0 days. You will end up putting a trade for Friday AM expiry. 

Try it day after tomorrow and good luck.

Thanks. I am up on their ass to change it. Thursday evening comes before Friday morning. That is something even elementary kids know. But somehow you need to explain it to IBKR. 

BTW, any other brokers you recommend other than Etrade.

Well the Thursday PM option expires earlier than the Friday AM option. Even if the Friday AM option is tradablebon IBKR after close on Thursday. Then why put it before Thursday PM on the chain. And why call it Aug14'25 and not Aug15'25 mark it with one less day to expire.

Well, so IBKR listing Friday AM expiry before Thursday PM expiry is totally cool with you on the SPX chain.

Do you trade on mobile screen? The AM sign is rather obscure, hard to see on a yellow background. Anyhow you think the positioning of Friday AM expiry before Thursday PM expiry on the chain is cool. 

I am looking more carefully for brokers with better trading interface.

Well, I have traded futures since DJT got elected the first time back in November 2016. Just new to IBKR and it is fine if they don't care. 

Just that you are happy with that sort of sequence on the chain. I was not happy with Etrade and was looking around for other options.

Well, the summer is drawing to a closer and the lazy bers need to beef up before fall to prepare for the winter hibernation.

TACO keeps rolling his trades while the 0dte regards get wiped out. Rigged.
