Electronic trading major Interactive Brokers continues to expand the capabilities of its TWS platform. Advisors are invited to make use of the latest enhancements made to the Allocation Order Tool.

In beta build 10.24, users get access to the same valuable short/securities lending data for US equities historically available only to banks, broker-dealers and institutional investors. The Orbisa Securities Lending Analytics Dashboard in Fundamentals Explorer gives you professional-level access to key metrics and data to see when borrowing demand is increasing or decreasing so you’re better able to gauge in which direction market sentiment is trending.
Orbisa data includes 189,000 unique securities over more than 50 global markets.
Build 10.24 has also added swap support for European Mutual Funds.
The Exchange Fund feature allows clients to swap all or part of an eligible (long) mutual fund position into another fund from the same fund family. Eligible funds include European funds traded on FUNDSETL, and ALLFUNDS exchanges.
