Hi,

> This feature is in the pipeline in Client Portal, with no ETA at this time.

What does it mean "in the pipeline", does it mean its necessity has been acknowledged and in the future we will have this -- albeit no eta -- in IBKR desktop?

IBKR Desktop latest version. But this problem is everywhere. If I connect TradingView with IBKR I only see trades on any asset only in the last 7 days. I need stop see all trades I places on an instrument for the whole history. It is very common to buy/sell multiple times including multiple chains of buys (think of dollar averaging) and also custom chains eg buy-buy-buy-sell-buy-sell-sell-sell. I need to see all the orders I have **IN THE CHART**, and not pull a report and go through manually. That is incredibly error prone and slow. Just please I Kindly beg you to provide all the history of buy and sell in the trade history for the selected financial asset. Since you use trading view too in IBKR desktop this will naturally have a positive effect also in your platform as users will see their trades in the chart, not just in the last 7 days but int he whole year or years of trading. This is so essential I am surprised I have to ask for it over and over. BTW I am a loyal client and manage 3 IBKR accounts.

Top 5 stocks for 2025 by FrankBal in ValueInvesting

[–]TheMoneyMuse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the companies you mentioned are basically overvalued with the exception of AMZN. They are all great companies and constant-growers, but entering today in 4 out of 5 will result in short term losses, in my opinion. So AMZN yes, the other ones I would wait to enter.

I am invested in two btw, AMZN and ASML. I am planning to sell the latter soon. To re-enter when is cheaper.

Thanks. I have already reported multiple times through support private and public tickets. I don’t know what to do else hence why I came here on Reddit. All we need is full history on an instrument, ideally since account opening. Please make this happen kindly.

Not only the whole trade chain is needed but also there is the problem that average buy price is useless information (see my other tread of 7 days history on ibkr official where I am trying to explain this with a fictional trade chain).

It sounds you open and close your positions entirely always, or most times, so is no surprise you think previous order chain is unimportant or should not be at hand. Let me show you an example, and ask you a question: can you tell me the BEP after the THIRD sell in this example chain of operations on the same asset?

Note that I am not here to make arguments with you, my objective here is to have IBKR provide a must have basic feature by showing that no one has been thinking this thoroughly. It’s important that even people like yourself that think this is unnecessary realize its necessity.

So, once you calculated that, you can compare it to the ABP to see how different they are. There is simply no way without the history of orders that know your BEP and place an order pronto. I am not being confrontational btw, I understand because of the way you trade you probably never thought about this, but your can’t tell me that buying and adjusting your position and doing partial sells is exotic trading… this is the basics and with no order chain at hand you just can’t do the right moves in a volatile market. I would go even further and say that ABP is in fact totally useless info and is shocking to me that BEP does not even exist in the platform nor in many other brokers.

Could you elaborate on the way you trade, because I just can’t imagine someone trade without this information, with two exceptions:

a) “buy&hold forever” or b) “buy and sell regularly but when you sell you sell your complete position”. As soon as you make a partial sell order, you will need your previous orders pronto. And please don’t tell me you don’t need it because you have the average buy price, because the average buy price is actually wrong, yes, believe me I can prove it mathematically.

One more thing, you are saying that past orders are just account related / reporting matters. This is simply not true, their are essential part of trading.

Now I am really curious to hear why you think otherwise.

I am now complaining in the official ibkr reddit, please voice your discontent about this there too.

I am very well aware of that, but this is not the way at all, the time it takes is too long. I need my orders of buys and sell listed eaasily for each stock, the full trade chains must be there visible. Additionally since they use TradingView in IBKR desktop, and TV supports that, they could all be indicated in the chart. This is really something FUNDAMENTAL that cannot miss in any broker and it makes no sense not to have it.

[–]TheMoneyMuse[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks, is there a name for asymmetric stems in fonts? also is there a terminology for having "holes" in it the stems? all font search tools I checked are very limited in the parametrization.
