Want to buy just $500 worth of an expensive stock, or looking to diversify among more investments? Now you can - fractional share trading with the ability to enter order size in terms of dollar amounts is in gradual rollout.

How it works: When using a Cash Quantity order, you specify the dollar amount you want to buy or sell instead of specifying the number of shares. Rather than buying five shares you elect to buy, for example, $500 worth of a stock. We purchase the equivalent number of shares for that value rounded down to the nearest whole share.

If you enable your account to Trade in Fractions, we will buy or sell a fraction of a share to use the full amount of cash you specified and get the greatest possible number of shares for your money. If you want to spend $500 but one share of the stock you want to buy is currently $1000, you would end up with 0.5 shares. The ability to trade in fractions also makes it easy for you to diversify your portfolio; if you have $500 to spend you can purchase fractional amounts in multiple companies when you otherwise might only be able to purchase whole shares in two or three companies.

To use cash quantity for an order, tap the arrow at the end of the Quantity field to display the Size Ladder, where you typically specify the number of shares for the order. Tap Cash from the toggle at the bottom and specify the cash amount you want to use. When the order fills, it will fill as closely as possible to your specified amount, rounding down to the nearest whole share if you haven't enabled trading in fractions. Because the price may move before the order fills, we apply a "Cash Quantity Estimate Factor" when calculating the order quantity. This factor, set to 25% by default, increases the calculated order quantity to try to achieve the desired monetary outcome in cases where the price drops (for a buy) or rises (for a sell) by allowing more units to be bought or sold. You can change the default percentage in the Size section of the Stock presets in Configuration.

To enable fractional share trading, log into Client Portal and from the Settings menu select Account Settings. Click the gear icon next to Trading Experience & Permissions and expand the Stocks section. Check United States (Trade in Fractions). This feature is available to both IBKR Pro and IBKR Lite clients, and supported for a subset of US stocks.

Note that this version is being rolled out to clients gradually.

We are pleased to announce unlimited, commission-free trading of US exchange-listed stocks and ETFs - with no account minimums and no minimum activity fees - through our new IBKR Lite trading plan.

Additionally, you can now view the Greek Vega for your portfolio, alongside the aggregated Theta and SPX (beta-weighted) Delta in the dashboard of the portfolio screen.

By allowing you to define values you use most often, Order Presets decrease time to market for your orders.This feature is now supported in IBKR Mobile. Desktop-defined presets are saved to the Cloud and available for mobile trading. Additionally, you can create new presets for mobile on product types and for specific tickers.

Select a product type and then modify Timing, Size, Primary Order, Target Order, Attached Stops, Precautionary settings and more. Or, tap New Ticker Specific setting at the bottom of the Presets parameters and define these values for a single ticker.

Presets are applied automatically to your orders; if you create a stock preset for XYZ that includes a size of 500 shares with the Relative order type as the default, when you select XYZ to create an order it will be default start as a Relative order for 500 shares. You can always make changes to Preset values before you submit the order.

Note that IBKR Mobile does not support all of the preset parameters available in TWS for Desktop, and only displays values that are supported.

You can now view the aggregated Theta and the SPX (beta-weighted) Delta for your portfolio. Theta measures time decay for your options and futures options positions. A positive theta indicates that, all else remaining the same, the account value may grow over time. It may also indicate greater risk to your when the underlying price swings and raises implied volatility (from being short gamma). The opposite is true for a negative theta.The beta-weighted SPX Delta can help you understand your exposure at a glance (relative to the SPX index) which in turn may be helpful in deciding whether you want to hedge your portfolio by selling SPX Delta exposure, or increase your portfolio's exposure by buying it. To enable this feature, from your Portfolio screen tap the menu (three vertical dots in the upper right corner) and check "Show Delta & Theta." These values display along the bottom of the dashboard of the Portfolio screen.

We've significantly enhanced the Order Wheel, our innovative mobile trading feature that lets you quickly submit orders, even when you're on the go. Here's what's new:

• Order Presets, which are defined in your desktop TWS and accessed through the cloud for mobile orders, are used in several ways:
• The quantity wheel uses Preset defaults to more accurately center values. For example, if you have the default option order size set to 8, the absolute quantity wheel will center around this value.
• If you have defined an attached order default in your preset for a specific instrument type, you will see this attribute in the Order Preview display (although you can't manage attached orders within the Order Wheel itself).
• You can now access the Order Wheel from the navigation menu, right under the Order Ticket. It's also still available by tapping "Wheel" within a Contract Details screen for a specific asset.
• We now support a broader range of products that can be traded through the Wheel, including those products that have delayed or frozen market data.
• The Tick Increment view of the price ladder is available for one-sided quotes, where either the bid or ask is missing.
• Prices are now shaded in the absolute Price Ladder. Values at the bid and below are shaded light blue. Values at the ask and above are shaded light red.
• Bug fixes that have improved speed of opening and using the Order Wheel.

To find out more about the Order Wheel, see the Feature in Focus page.

In the order entry Price Wand, which you access by tapping the price field of an order, you will now see the midpoint of the bid/ask clearly labeled as MID within the wand. The MID price is also locked in the always-visible price panel at the bottom of the wand for easy selection, along with the BID and ASK prices.

Once logged in to TWS for Mobile, all users have a 20-minute grace period during which they can take a call or use another app and still retain access to their trading session without having to perform a full login (username/password + second factor authentication). For those devices that support fingerprints, users can now enjoy secure trading for up to 30 hours without having to complete the full login.

When you enable a fingerprint to unlock your device, you are automatically enrolled for TWS Fingerprint authentication. This means that once you log in to TWS, you are able to securely re-connect to your trading session for up to 30 hours using just your fingerprint as authentication. If your fingerprint authentication fails, or if you tap “Cancel,” you will be logged in to read-only mode. After 30 hours without using fingerprint authentication, you will be required to complete a full login. Note that, as an additional security measure, we will periodically require you to complete a full login.

Users who use a PIN or pattern instead of a fingerprint to unlock their device will be able to re-connect to their trading session for up to 12 hours using this authentication before a full login is required. If you do not want to enable the above forms of trading access and prefer to complete the full login process each time, disable “Secure reconnect” in IB TWS for Mobile configuration.

Please note, we’re tightening up our security, which is why we are requiring that, in order to use extended trading access, you must have either fingerprint or PIN/Pattern phone security enabled. For more details, see our Knowledge Base article on the subject.

Our innovative Order Entry Wheel in Contract Details leverages IBKR market knowledge to capture better prices by splitting the spread. Split spread orders include any order priced within the spread between the bid and ask price. When they fill, these orders yield significant price improvement. In addition, split spread orders typically add liquidity and may earn exchange rebates.

• Use the Adaptive button to create an Adaptive Algo order that automatically sets the order price within the bid/ask spread and then works the order within the spread until it fills or is canceled. Find out more about Adaptive Algo orders.
• Use Relative Prices to automatically set an order price within the spread, relative to the bid or ask price. Especially useful for instruments with a wide spread.
• Use Relative Sizes to quickly set the order size or have the order quantity calculated based on a cash value.

To open the Order Entry Wheel, simply tap “Wheel” from an instrument's Contract Details screen. The Order Entry Wheel is available for most instruments, and requires live market data. The Order Entry Wheel displays the Order Summary in the center, with the Price wheels (showing both absolute and relative prices) on the left side, and the Size wheels (with absolute and price-based sizes) on the right.

Use the Adaptive Algo

Tap the Adaptive button to create an Adaptive Limit order. Use the Order Wheel to set the limit price which acts as a price cap for the order. An adaptive buy limit order goes in near the bid price, and waits to fill. If it doesn't fill, it is resubmitted at a slightly more aggressive price. It continues to wait and move until it fills, is canceled, or hits the limit price cap.

Use the Wheel to Set the Order Price and Size

Price

• From the left side of the Order Wheel screen, use the outer price wheel to select an absolute price. The selected price is highlighted in the wheel and displays in the Order Summary Price field.
• Use the inner price wheel to have the system calculate an order price relative to the bid or ask price at the time you select a value. Use the toggle switch at the bottom of the relative price wheel to view relative prices from a percent of the bid/ask spread, or in tick increments. When you select a relative price, the corresponding absolute price is highlighted on the outer wheel, and displays in the Order Summary Price field with the dynamic relative price shown below it.

Size

• From the right side of the Order Wheel screen, use the inner size wheel to set the order size using numbers of shares or contracts. The selected size is highlighted in the wheel and displays in the Order Summary Size field with the corresponding cash quantity amount below it.
• Use the outer size wheel to specify a cash value that will be used to calculate the order quantity. The calculated order quantity is displayed in the Order Summary Size field, with the cash quantity amount below it.

NOTE: For Futures and CFDs, the "Gross Exposure" is used instead of the cash value.

If you hold a position in the instrument and want to close your position or load the full position size for editing, click the "Position" button in the Order Summary to use the existing position as the order size. This button displays above the Size field and is only visible when you have a position in the selected instrument.

When values are set, tap Buy or Sell, then confirm the order to submit.

To find out more about the Order Entry Wheel and our relative price methods, see the Feature in Focus page.
