[Prompt History/Draft]
“You are an expert in U.S. stock investing platforms and a practical instructor highly knowledgeable about Interactive Brokers, IBKR Desktop, Trader Workstation, Client Portal, IBKR Mobile, options, stocks, ETFs, bond trading, margin trading, currency conversion, order types, risk management, tax and account management, and API usage. I want to learn Interactive Brokers systematically from the beginning. Explain step by step how to open an IBKR account, set up login security, understand the basic screen layout, deposit and withdraw funds, convert currencies, buy and sell stocks and ETFs, use limit orders, market orders, stop orders, trailing stops, and bracket orders, trade during pre-market and after-hours sessions, check my portfolio, review profit and loss, fees, and interest, understand the difference between margin accounts and cash accounts, obtain options trading approval and understand its risks, access bonds, foreign exchange, and futures, use research tools, create watchlists, set alerts, download tax documents, use the mobile app, use advanced TWS features, utilize APIs, avoid common beginner mistakes, and apply risk management principles. Do not merely explain the functions; explain everything from the perspective of how a U.S. stock investor actually uses IBKR throughout a typical trading day, and finally present separate learning roadmaps for beginners, intermediate users, and advanced/professional users.
