IBKR Mobile for iOS Archived Release Notes
2019

Our new homepage consolidates key account, position and market updates - along with quick access to our "For You" notifications - all in one place. You can launch the relevant trading tool and view details from each tile. You can open the Homepage at any time from the menu. And coming soon, you'll be able to customize the layout to include tiles that are most useful to the the way you trade. This feature is in gradual rollout, so if you don't see it now don't worry it will be along shortly.

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.
Cash Quantity Orders: 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.
Cash Quantity with Fraction Trading: 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 diversity 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 the currency heading from the toggle at the bottom (for example USD) and specify the cash amount you want to use. When the order fills, it will fill as close 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 % 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.

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. Designed for the less active trader, IBKR Lite offers a simplified trading experience with free, non-consolidated market data for US stocks with CBOE ONE and low cost access to the global markets.
IBKR Lite supports trading on Client Portal as well as IBKR Mobile. To find out more, compare plans and request early access, visit the IBKR Lite information page. Currently available for clients in the US and India.
This release also includes support for Manual Order time entry for those accounts that require this feature.

Keep private data safe from prying eyes with Privacy Mode. Enabling this feature lets you see public data such as price and quantity, while keeping your account-specific personal data masked or hidden. To enable, tap the gear icon in your Portfolio or the Access & Security section of Configuration and then tap Enable Privacy Mode. Once enabled, get a quick peek at a sensitive value by tapping on the asterisks. Tap again to restore the asterisks and hide the value.
This release also includes several bug fixes to enhance overall performance.

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.

You can always make changes to Preset values before you submit the order.

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 view, use the "Details" down arrow to expand the panel, and swipe left and right to view all available metrics.
This release also includes several back-end bug fixes to improve performance.

Create and Compare Strategies with Spread Template
Spread Templates make it easy to create a complex multi-leg spread by providing a pick list of the most used strategies and an intuitive grid display for spreads. The new Spread Templates let you:
- Quickly compare prices across a range of similar combinations and pick the one you want.
- Easily compare tightness of the bid/ask spread for multiple strategies and quickly pick the one with the best spread.
- Search for the most appropriate strategy to hedge an existing position via the "Delta" and "Gamma" display in each grid box.
Each box in the grid displays key information such as price, spread, delta and gamma. You can fine-tune grid strategies by adjusting filters.
To use the Spread Template, open Quote Details for an instrument and tap "Spreads" from the top row of action buttons. Alternatively, select "Spread Template" from the asset type list when searching for a symbol to add to a Watchlist. From the Spread Template, select a strategy, (e.g. Calendar, Vertical, or Diagonal). Choose either Calls or Puts, and use the filter icon to define date filters or to filter out weeklies. Once filters are defined, swipe through to find the best available strategies based on spread, price, Delta and Gamma. Tap a square to add the legs to the strategy at the bottom of the screen.

Display Improvements
When viewing a chart in the expanded Instrument Details view, you can tap, hold and drag your finger across the chart to view the date/time wand. We have changed the display to show the date/time along the top of the chart (rather than at the bottom) so it doesn't interfere with the prices along the horizontal axis. The price for each date/time displays along the vertical price axis.
We have added an easy-to-read bid/ask display to the Instrument Details display. When you tap an instrument from a Watchlist or Portfolio, the BID and ASK size and price displays immediately below the instrument line.

Order Wheel: 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.
To find out more about the Order Wheel, see the Feature in Focus page.
Price Wand: 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.
Account Field Names: The Account page will now display the full field names when the device screen size can accommodate them. Otherwise, field names will be abbreviated.

Users who have enabled Passcode security to access their mobile device can now enjoy secure trading for up to 12 hours using your passcode to authenticate, without having to complete the full login.
If you prefer to complete the full login process each time, disable Auto-reconnect in IB TWS for Mobile Configuration. For up to 30 hours of secure trading access, enable Touch ID on your device and use your fingerprint to authenticate. See notes for release 8-37 below.

If you are using Touch ID to authenticate into TWS, you now have a 20-minute grace period to take a call or use another app before you will be required to provide a fingerprint.

IBot gets smarter
As we improve the artificial intelligence that powers IBot, our first step was to revamp IBot's user interface to make it easier to apply machine learning, based on how you interact with it. Improvements to the interface include:
- Better presentation of information. Key elements are easier to spot in the new design which uses the full screen instead of limiting commands to text bubbles.
- Color-coded shortcuts. IBot's "next step" shortcut buttons are now displayed vertically, and are color-coded to help identify their function quickly ("Buy" buttons are blue, "Sell" buttons are red. All others are gray).
- When you enter a command, it now displays in the top right corner of IBot for easy reference.
Try out this improved version of IBot by tapping the "More" icon in the bottom right corner and selecting "IBot - type to trade."
Support for larger text
If you have specified a preferred reading size for text in iOS Settings (General > Accessibility > Larger Text) you can apply this feature in IB TWS for Mobile from the Display section of Configuration by enabling "Larger Text Support."

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 displays in landscape mode. It 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.

- You can attach child orders such as stop, profit taker and bracket orders to existing orders that are working in the market.
- We have significantly improved the instrument search functionality:
- You can now search for instruments from almost any screen using the magnifier icon.

Users who have enabled Touch ID to access their mobile device can now enjoy secure trading for up to 30 hours without having to complete the full login.
When you enable Touch ID to unlock your iOS device, you are automatically enrolled for TWS Touch ID authentication. This means that once you log in to TWS, you are able to securely re-access 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 Touch ID authentication, you will be required to complete the full login process. Additionally, all sessions are disconnected each Sunday at 1:00 AM local time and will require you to complete the full login process. This means that if you access mobile TWS every 30 hours or less, you can maintain your trading access for the entire week.
If you do not want to enable Touch ID for TWS and prefer to complete the full login process each time, disable Auto-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 Touch ID phone security enabled. For more details, see our Knowledge Base article on the subject.

This release sees the unification of iPhone and iPad apps into one, plus more:
- IB TWS for Mobile is now a universal app, which means that you can now install the same app on both your iPhone and iPad for a more consistent trading experience across devices.
- You can now search for financial instruments using the company name as well as the symbol.
- We've improved the way shared Order Presets are applied when attaching child orders, such as profit taker and stop loss orders, and when changing the order type.
- We've improved support for our second factor login system.

This release includes several IBot improvements:
- IBot can now search the IB web site and knowledge base to help answer your questions.
- IBot can now bring you to the login window to start the full login process when you're in Read-Only mode. IBot will offer to bring you to the login window if you ask to trade an instrument, or if you enter a specific request like "trade login" or "trading login."

This release includes advisor and charts enhancements, and a new Notification Center feature.
- Financial advisors and other multi-account users can now route mobile orders to their allocation groups and profiles that they created in the desktop version, as well as to single accounts.
- We’ve enhanced our mobile charts to allow you to pan backward and forward by sliding right or left, and to zoom in and out on a chart using the “pinch” gesture with two thumbs to expand or contract the viewing area.
- The new Notification Center with visible badge in the top right corner consolidates and displays all FYIs and trade bulletins.

Order Presets that you define in TWS for Desktop are now available through the Cloud and will be applied to orders on TWS for Mobile when applicable. Presets are not currently editable in TWS for Mobile. This feature is being released on a gradual rollout schedule.

This release includes several option chains enhancements, the ability to submit an order by sliding, support for Apple's 3D touch and some improvement to our recently released dark color theme.
- Options Chains - You can now view option quote details from an Option Chain without adding the option to a Watchlist. To see options, tap an underlying symbol to view expanded details, and tap again to see comprehensive details. In the top right corner tap "Options" to view chains. Tap an option within the chain and along the bottom select "View Quote Details."
- Option Chains - You can now view option Greeks Delta, Gamma, Vega and Theta in an option chain by scrolling horizontally in the title section where the BID, ASK and LAST field names are shown.
- We've sped up the trading process by adding the ability to "slide" to trade. The "Slide to Submit..." feature displays along the bottom of the order ticket. We've also added the ability to "Slide to Log Out" on the bottom of the "More" menu. You can turn these features off within Configuration by enabling the Simplified user interface in the Display section. NOTE: Slide to...functionality is disabled if you have enabled General > Accessibility > VoiceOver in your Settings.
- Support for 3D Touch - Apple's 3D touch allows multiple actions on an item based on the pressure applied by the user. The degree of pressure you apply to a supported area dictates the next actions you have available. In IB TWS for iPhone, you can use 3D touch from the IB TWS icon on the home screen. Apply firm pressure to invoke a pop-up menu from which you can Share IB TWS, go directly to your IB Portfolio or go directly to your account information. Inside the IB TWS app, 3D touch is supported in Watchlists and the Portfolio. Use firm pressure to get a peek at the selected Watchlist or Portfolio, then swipe up to get the Buy and Sell buttons. Press harder to view extended quote details for that row.
- We've also made improvements to the recently added dark color theme.

- Better support for voice recognition.
- Support for vendor display rules plus a fractional position bug fix.
- Support to show Covestor invest/divest trades. Bug fixes for dark color scheme.

Several bug fixes included.

You can now speak commands to IBot on TWS for Mobile if your phone has voice capability. Simply tap the microphone icon to the right of the IBot text entry field and speak your command, for example say "Show me the last price for apple." Tap the large microphone icon when you have completed the command. It appears in the text field. If the command is accurate, hit the Send icon, otherwise edit the command or delete it and try again. You'll notice another new clock icon. Tap this icon to get a list of your most recent commands, and tap a command to re-use it. Note that IBot is only available with iOS release 10 or higher.

IBot is our text-based interface to TWS designed to help you complete key trading tasks - like creating orders, viewing charts, getting quote details and seeing key account values - without having to navigate elsewhere.
To use IBot on IB TWS for Mobile, log in and open the Main menu by tapping the "More" icon (three horizontal lines) along the bottom of the app. Tap "IBot - type to trade" and enter text in the entry field, for example "Chart 6 months of aapl" and tap the "send" icon to submit the command. Once your command is submitted, you'll quickly receive IBot's response.
Alternatively, use your device’s voice command to enter text. Simply click the small microphone icon next to the entry field and speak your command, for example "Quote apple." Tap the large microphone when you’re done and then tap the "send" icon to submit the command.
If you need help, you can ask for it! For example, you might want to ask "Give me help submitting orders" or "Help with quotes."
To find out more about IBot see the IBot Feature in Focus page. This feature is only available with iOS version 10 or higher.

- The Portfolio menu now includes the popular "Close All Positions" command.
- Version 8.24 includes support for Apple Watch OS3.

- You can now configure Watchlists to display all data on a single line by removing the company name field which starts on the second row. To do this, navigate to Configuration and turn off Show Company name.
- Note that when you sort on the "Change" column in a Watchlist, it sorts on the percent change.
- We now provide a new instrument-specific P&L reset time. This resets your daily P&L calculation based on the time zone of each asset rather than the system or selected time zone. To turn on this feature, navigate to Configuration and tap Daily P&L time zone, then turn on Use contract-specific reset time. When enabled, for instruments that open and close on the same day, the P&L will be reset five minutes before midnight of the instrument's time zone. For instruments that trade across two days (through midnight), the P&L will be reset five minutes before it opens for trading in the instrument's time zone. This change requires a restart to IB TWS.

The Tab Bar shows page icons along the bottom of the TWS for Mobile application. Simply click an icon to access that page. Edit the icons displayed in the tab bar by clicking the "More" icon on the far right of the tab bar and then clicking Edit in the top right corner.

Also, we squashed several small bugs in this release.

Check key account metrics at a "glance." including P&L, Net Liquidation, Orders/Trades, Excess Liquidity and Positions. Enable push notifications to see when new IB FYI notifications are available.
- You can now quickly enter futures calendar spreads by selecting “Future Spread Combo” as an asset type when you enter a futures contract. Use the matrix to select the front month and back month, then tap the desired contract to add to the Watchlist or view quote details. Additionally, we have added a “Spreads” button to the Quote Details from a single futures contract. Click “Spreads” to specify the selected contract as the front or back month and quickly create a calendar spread.
