I love the potential for this broker and how everything should work being that it’s cloud based. I was looking to use this broker’s mobile app and web based trading, while away from my home office which I use NT8. But for a broker who, has all 3 types of trading available I’m not convinced that the mobile or convenience is really there. The rep I’m talking to (Alex) is slowly loosing my confidence for the mobile and web based trading. So idk if this broker isn’t putting effort into the mobile app efficiency. Every time I speak or tell him my plans he pushes the platform…or tells me how the mobile may not work or something/may be slow/internet connection…yea that’s the obvious. I trade options swing and day trades using Think or Swim mobile app, been doing it for years…matter of fact TD Ameritrade encourages app usage. I day trade some things on MT4’s mobile app..no issues! Now Alex is definitely pushing the Application process. Wanting you to join and sign up and he’s definitely keeping in contact with concerns. Like currently I just signed up and got the email saying the account is made but for some odd reason when I attempt to log in it freezes for about 5 mins and then says connection lost (mobile and web). The reply…internet connection, however ToS app working smoothly as well as MetaTrader. Now I’m not gonna just give up on the potential in Iron Beam I definitely can see it. But my personal opinion is the “whole package” of this company is not developed enough yet. Don’t focus on getting that initial fee, instead focus on the quality of your server based idea, so that I don’t just close the app and open another app and do the same thing better. A lot of people are trading mobile, using bracket orders and other various ways of trading. So don’t let a little effort created mobile app be a potential downfall.

I really like the spreads and the trading tools!

Dear Ironbeam team, Need to know whether Indian citizens can trade Futures market from Ironbeam account?

I just managed to open an account with Ironbeam. That was really quick. The support team was really helpful. I will start to transfer the fund to the account as Ironbeam is so convincing. The margin is low, with this current market volatility, I guess this will be a good platform to leverage the margin facilities. The only thing that I do not like much about Ironbeam is the trading platform. I am using the demo account and there are a lot of things that need to be improved with the platform for it to help traders in doing their trade. __________ (Update1 Day after the opening of the account) I deposited my fund (Wired Transfer) into the account and it worked really smoothly. I made the first trade using the Ironbeam free platform. One word I can describe the platform- Excellent!. The place, edit, or cancel orders was working seamlessly. The platform for the real account is totally different with the demo.

Great platform - amazing margins and great execution. I love the web based accessibility. Perfect for intermediate to advanced futures traders.

Excellent customer service.

Their margins are misleading, they advertise $50 micro contracts when in fact $187 is needed for /MNQ, $132 for /MES update: yes, you are correct, I apologize for fo the bad review, the margins are enjoyed on the iron beam platform

Excellent, prompt hands on customer service. Never had any issues. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable futures broker.
