Introducing brokers may request login reports to obtain information regarding their client’s login activity to the various trading platforms and Client Portal. Although the content of this report may be customized to fit particular needs, the username, application type (TWS, Mobile Trader), and time of login in EST are the default contents. Delivery of this report is on a monthly basis and made available through the Client Portal. Based on the chosen contents of the report, however, FTP delivery may also be available.
Please note that this information is provided on a best efforts basis and may contain errors or omissions. The report should be used for informational purposes only and is subject to change without prior or additional notice. IBKR does not warrant that the information provided is accurate, timely or complete and urges clients to contact IBKR immediately should there be any concerns regarding account security or protection.
对于加入安全登录系统的客户,如果其安全设备找不到、遗失或损坏,IBKR会提供临时密码。客户可在2天内使用此临时密码访问客户端和交易平台。2天后,临时密码便不再能用于访问交易平台,但仍可在8天内供客户访问客户端。但客户端的访问权限仅限于打印或保存在线安全代码卡。
而在线安全代码卡则有21天有效期,可以让账户持有人有时间找出设备,或者如果是设备遗失或损坏导致需要更换也可在收到更换设备前继续访问账户。没有实物安全设备又无法使用临时密码或在线安全代码卡登录的账户持有人要访问账户需联系客户服务(ibkr.com/support)。
恢复账户永久性访问的最快办法是安装并激活采用IB Key的移动IBKR程序。有关此智能手机程序激活的详细信息,请参见此处。
重要通知
根据政策,IBKR将不再为账户连续提供临时密码,而是会通过实物安全设备将账户保护提高至最安全等级。
In case your smartphone is unable to receive IBKR Mobile notifications, you can still complete the login process using the IBKR Mobile Authentication (IB Key) Challenge/Response method, described on the following pages (according to your device operating system):
The same information applies to you if your phone has no Internet connectivity (you are in roaming, out of coverage, without an active mobile data plan, etc.)
If your smartphone is unable to receive IBKR Mobile notifications despite having Internet connectivity, we recommend you to perform the steps outlined in the IBKR Knowledge Base.
Store settings on server allows clients the ability to store their Trader Workstation (TWS) settings/configuration on the cloud and retrieve them at anytime from another computer. This feature allows you to use the layout of a specific user on two or more machines.
In some specific circumstances, the operation which stores/downloads the settings to/from the cloud may fail and the following error message may appear shortly after the TWS has loaded on the screen:
How to overcome this error message?
The underlying causes of this message are usually the following:
The Trader Workstation (TWS) software needs to connect to our gateways and market data servers in order to work properly. Connectivity issues affecting your local network or your Internet Service Provider network may negatively affect the TWS functionality. In this article we will indicate how to test your connectivity using an automated connectivity test web page.
2) Please wait until all the tests have been completed and results have been displayed. If you see "Success" as outcome for all tests, your connectivity to IB Servers is reliable at the present moment. No additional connectivity troubleshooting or configuration should be needed.
3) If you see "Fail" as outcome for one or more test/s, please click on the link "Fail" itself in order to display the "IB Network Troubleshooting Guide". That section will help you conduct some manual tests to identify the cause of the failure.
Note for Corporative environments and Proxy server users: the automated "Connectivity Test" page may return misleading results in case your machine is accessing the Internet through a Proxy server. This usually happens if you are connected to a company network. If this is your case, we kindly ask you to contact your Network Administrator or your IT Team and ask them to perform a manual connectivity tests towards the destination servers indicated in the table on the top of the IB automated "Connectivity Test" web page itself. The manual connectivity test should be conducted using destination TCP ports 4000 and 4001. Should they prefer to have the server list in another format or should they need to set up the firewall / IP Management rules, you can forward them this page.

The Trader Workstation is a Java-based application. As any other Java applications, it executes within a Java virtual machine (JVM) which manages the interactions between the program and the underlying Operating System (OS).
The memory (RAM) which is allocated by the operating system to the JVM constitutes the heap space. That is the area where all the class instances and arrays needed by the application are allocated. The heap space is created when the JVM is started and it is dynamically freed-up by the Garbage Collector (GC), the Java memory manager. When the need arises, the Garbage Collector is invoked to free up the heap space by unloading Java classes and other code structures no longer used by the application.
If the heap space is undersized, the Garbage Collector may not be able reclaim memory at the needed pace or may have to be called too often, draining the processor (CPU) resources. When this happens, the application may slow down, be unresponsive or even crash completely.
To ensure a smooth TWS run, it is therefore sometimes necessary to change the memory allocation, according to the layout complexity and the needs of the application itself.
Please follow one of the links below for the instructions, according to the Operating System and TWS release you are using
4) Click on Apply and then on OK
5) Shut down the TWS
1) Close TWS in case it is running
