The Natural Way to Manage Your Account and More

Let IBot show you how easy it can be to trade with TWS, manage your account and find information. Type requests in plain English, and let IBot set up your trade, show your daily P&L, scan the markets, create a custom chart, answer account questions and show related articles. IBot can search the IBKR website and outside sources like Wikipedia and Investopedia, and access Account Management to help with funds, banking and more.

Overview

Powerful yet easy to use, IBot is pioneering a new way to interact with your Interactive Brokers brokerage account that requires no learning curve. Because IBot understands commands in plain English, you don't need to follow any syntax rules or know any key words.

Enter commands in plain language, and IBot provides help and information wherever you may need it. In addition to Desktop TWS, IBKR Mobile and Client Portal, we continue to add new ways to access IBKR brokerage and account information quickly and easily; IBot is now available to help in more places than ever before:

  • IBKR.com search: Enter a question and browse the FAQs for a quick answer.
  • IBKR support ticket: Have a question? Start with Ask IBot for a fast response to your question.

IBot enriches the user experience by offering supplemental articles and information from external sources, like Wikipedia and Investopedia. These third-party additions are clearly marked in IBot's search results.Whether you simply want to check your daily P&L or the price of your favorite stock, or you want to create a sophisticated, custom algo order to buy or sell a large volume of shares using Accumulate/Distribute, IBot is there to assist, wherever you are.



Using IBot

Desktop TWS

From the New Window drop-down, scroll down and select IBot - type to trade. Or, click the IBot button along the top of the Mosaic workspace.

Client Portal

Use the Client Portal to see a clear, real-time view of key account metrics, place a trade, access Account Management (with just one click!) or communicate with other clients via the IBKR Forum. Use IBot to help with whatever you may need. Simply click the IBot icon at the bottom right of the Client Portal.

Open IBot from Client Portal

Entering Commands

IBot is a true cross-platform application that understands the same commands whether you're interacting from Desktop TWS, IBKR Mobile, Client Portal or any other platform on which IBot is accessible.

To start with a simple command, let's find the current price of Apple stock.

In the IBot entry field type your command, something like "show me the price of apple" or "last price AAPL" or "AAPL stock price."

Ask IBot to find the price of Apple stock
IBot returns the last price of Apple

Create an Order

Now let's go a step further and create an order. IBot already knows we're discussing Apple, so in this case you only need to give it a "buy" or "sell" command. If you want to buy 100 shares of Apple at a limit price of $176.00, you only need to type "buy this at 176." When the order is returned, simply review the order attributes and if it's correct, submit the order. Note that the order parameters are the same defaults you will see if you create an order from the Order Panel.

Create More Order Types and Algos with IBot

IBot can help you to create orders that aren't supported in normal channels. In addition to the Accumulate/Distribute and Percent of Volume algo orders with examples below, you can use IBot to create:

Check back regularly as we continue to add IBot support for more order types and algos.

Create a Percent of Volume Algo Order

Let's have IBot help us create a Percent of Volume IB Algo order. Simply ask IBot to create the algo. For example, we could ask "buy 300 aapl with volume algo" or "buy aapl using percent of vol algo" or "buy 300 aapl with 10% target volume." If we had just checked the price of Apple, our command could be as simple as "buy 300 with %vol algo." In this case IBot assumes we want to buy AAPL, since that's the last asset we asked about. IBot will complete as much of the order as possible based on your original command, then prompt you to complete any outstanding parameters. In this example, we need to specify the percent of volume, which we can do either by entering a value or picking from the list of presented shortcut buttons. Once the order is complete, we can elect to submit the order from IBot.

The commands are the same whether you're using IBot in Desktop TWS, IBKR Mobile or Client Portal.

Percent of Volume Algo Order

Create an Accumulate/Distribute Order

For another example of how IBot can help you configure complex order types and algos, let's ask IBot help us to buy a very large volume of shares. If you're familiar with the TWS Accumulate/Distribute algo, you understand the complexity of the tool and the power of the custom algo orders it can create. IBot simplifies this process considerably. For example, IBot can help us easily create an algo order to buy 10000 shares in 300 share increments submitted every 30 seconds, using a relative order with or without a limit price cap, that continues until you cancel it. We can have it fill outside regular trading hours, tell it whether or not to wait for each increment to fill before it submits the next one, and have it attempt to catch up quickly if it falls behind. And we can randomize the increment size and time periods to help ensure the large order is not detected in the market.

As mentioned earlier, you can create this same complex type of order from your phone or in the Client Portal. Start by asking IBot to accumulate a large share of stock, and answer the simple questions to let IBot create the algo.

Create an Accumulate/Distribute Order

IBot can understand and act on commands to be executed within the trading platform, on the website, and in Account Management. Command categories include (but are not limited to) quotes, charts, orders, trades, market scanners, Level II data, option chains, events calendars, adding and modifying market data subscriptions, trading permissions, depositing and withdrawing funds to and from your account, seeing PortfolioAnalyst and activity metrics, and getting Customer Support answers to common questions.

Symbols

Want to know the symbol for a certain company? Just ask and IBot provides the symbol along with the last available price. IBot is also smart enough to understand follow-up questions.

Charts

Tell IBot the specifics of the chart you want to see, for example: "chart aapl over six months." If you don't mention bar size or even time range, IBot will display the most reasonable chart based on what you entered. In this case, it shows the six months with weekly bars. You can have IBot change to daily bars easily, simply by entering "use daily bars." Use the Next Step shortcut buttons to perform an action naturally associated with your previous one. Click "Open Chart" to display the full chart in a new TWS window.

IBot FAQs

For the shortest response time to questions, we suggest you start with the IBot FAQ. Our natural language-based interface can quickly provide solutions to common issues, and offers "how to" help for popular areas of inquiry, like funds and banking, Client Portal, activity statements, account balances, order entry and much more. Access the IBot FAQs from the Client Services page (in the Contact Us menu) and from the IBKR Search. Whenever possible, the IBot FAQ response offers a direct link to where you need to be, for example, if you Ask IBot how to fund your account, the answer contains a link to "Transfer Funds" within Account Management. Click this link, log into Account Management, and you will be taken to the screen you need to complete the task.

Appendix A


Options

IBot uses these basic rules to decide which options contracts to return:


Contract Identification

In cases where there is more than one option contract on the same exchange with the same expiry, strike and right, IBot will choose a contract as follows:

  • She will choose smart over non-smart
  • She will choose non-weekly contracts
  • She will choose the contract with a standard multiplier

Partial Instrument Match

In cases where you leave out a parameter, IBot will try to identify the option contract with an educated guess based on the following logic. In these cases IBot indicates that this might be a "Partial instrument match."

  • If the underlying is missing she assumes the last used underlying if one is available.
  • If the type is missing, she will use a CALL.
  • If the expiration is missing, she will use the nearest month.
  • If the strike is missing, she will use the at-the-money strike.

Option Syntax

IBot will recognize all of the following entries as the same option:

  • SPY 105 call Sep'16
  • SPY Sep16 105 CALL
  • SPY 16Sep16 105 call
  • SPY Q3 Sep16 105 call
  • September 2016 SPY 105 call
