Interactive Brokers Adds ChatGPT and Grok Integration

Interactive Brokers (Nasdaq: IBKR), an automated global broker, today announced the expansion of its agentic trading capabilities with the addition of ChatGPT and Grok, further broadening a growing ecosystem of AI platform integrations that began with Claude. Available through certified AI connector marketplaces across multiple leading platforms, these integrations allow clients to research, analyze, and generate instructions with speed and efficiency to uncover new trading and investing opportunities instantly. With this release, Interactive Brokers also extends the selection of products available for order instructions to include support for options, futures and futures options in addition to equities and ETFs.

"We continue to see growing interest from investors in using artificial intelligence as a more natural way to interact with financial markets," said Milan Galik, Chief Executive Officer of Interactive Brokers. "Adding ChatGPT and Grok, together with support for options and futures, expands the ways clients can securely connect AI tools to Interactive Brokers for research, analysis and execution. We will continue to broaden the capabilities and asset classes available through these integrations over time."

Clients can now link their existing IBKR account to ChatGPT, Grok, or Claude in minutes using their IBKR login at no extra cost, with no new account required, and no passwords or API keys ever shared with the AI provider. Once connected, clients can use natural language to explore their portfolio, analyze markets, and generate order instructions. Every instruction is reviewed and approved by the client in a dedicated AI Instructions tab before any order is submitted to the market.

What Clients Can Achieve

A few examples of the kinds of questions and functionality that the integration handles:

• “Show me the possible Options strategies that can help protect the gains on my five largest stock positions and generate the order instructions for each.”
  The AI finds options strategies to protect gains on five positions and generates the order instructions.
   
• “Buy 2 contracts of nearby month ICE OIL futures.”

The AI generates order instructions to buy 2 contracts of front-month ICE OIL futures.

• "Which of my positions currently have an RSI above 70 (overbought) or below 30 (oversold)?"

The AI computes technical indicators across the client's holdings and flags stretched positions.

• "Compare my portfolio's recent momentum against a broad market index ETF."
  The AI benchmarks aggregate portfolio performance against a relevant index.
