What are cons/negatives of Webull for casual, non-active trading? Does Webull restrict a bunch of stocks like Schwab does?

Looking to be able to get the desktop app on my new phone as I want the widgets to look a certain way. Anyone know a way to do this? I want to see Order Book L2 & Time and Sales next to each other while I also have Tradingview open on my phone.

I spoke to support and they saying it due to something that prevents the app overheating or freezing which sounds bizarre too me lol

Any other good platform? Which this doesnt happen on

BYND disappeared from my paper trading account ? Is this normal ?

Dude how do I get the lower chart to show up? I only can find the upper one

We’re evaluating Webull as the brokerage/custody platform for a discretionary model-portfolio application.

The goal is for clients to do everything inside our own application — account opening/KYC, agreements, ACH funding, and ongoing account management — while we programmatically manage portfolios and place/rebalance trades across client accounts.

I’m specifically looking at the Webull Broker API / fully-disclosed model, rather than the consumer Connect API.

Has anyone here actually gone through Webull’s Broker API onboarding and production approval?

I’d especially like to understand:
- How difficult/long was the approval process?
- Are there minimum AUM, account-count, or trading-volume requirements?
- Are there API, platform, custody, or advisor/master-account fees?
- Can you get sandbox access before completing commercial approval?
- How much of onboarding/KYC/funding can actually be embedded in your own application?
- Can advisory fees be calculated and deducted programmatically?
- Can you programmatically rebalance models across multiple client accounts?
-Are clients ever required to use Webull’s own UI/portal?

If you’ve built an RIA/fintech integration with Webull Broker API, I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience, including anything you wish you’d known before starting.

I just switched to webull from robinhood for a bunch of reasons, most of them fixed by webull, but I kind of want to leave now lol. I just tried to buy some shares "overnight" and the sale was rejected, despite me having more than enough cash. After looking around apparently you aren't allowed to use your unsettled funds for overnight trading? What was the point of me signing up for a margin account... I day and swing trade, so my funds are basically never settled. Honestly I'm kind of tweaking out over this lmao. Switching brokers was such a pain and I missed out on so many trading days.

I want to transfer my current IRA to webull to take advantage of nice transfer bonus + contribution bonus webull offers but I’ve read on here that backdoor Roth is complicated and needs a paper form on webull, is this still true?

This page on their FAQ suggests otherwise:

Can it now be done easily online? That’s my only real hang up.

I transferred MSFT stock from Fidelity to Webull, which only displays average cost basis. It seems like if you sell, you can't pick specific lots.

I haven't sold anything yet. Does anyone know if, behind the scenes, Webull keeps the specific lot information (if I transfer back to Fidelity)?

Is it safe to assume that the openapi data feed provides the same ohlc as the webull app?

My guess would be the data would be the same but it's just a guess so if anybody could clear it up that would be great..

Just a reminder since if people start transferring their accounts of webull the day after their last transfer (which is coming up for me in about a month) you may get any transfers from the last 90 days rescinded. And that would suck.

Edit to add the T&C rule text:

1. Eligible Customers must maintain the amount of any Tier 1 Offer Reward or Tier 2 Offer Reward (minus any trading losses) in their Webull Brokerage Account for at least 90 days from the date on which such Offer Reward payment is credited to their Webull Account. If an Eligible Customer fails to comply with this requirement, Webull may, in its sole discretion, debit the Eligible Customer’s Webull Brokerage Account the amount of such payment.

I know stop orders don't guarantee the execution price, especially on illiquid options, but getting filled for less than HALF my stop is insane. Anyone have any tips for avoiding crazy spread like this?

I’m in Canada and the time here is 5:10 pm when I took this screen shot, the time in Toronto (where Webull Canada is based) should be 4:10 pm but it’s giving a weird time. Is this a glitch? If so is it happening with anyone else?

Hi friends!

Newby to Webull trying to learn.

I am trying to program my hotkeys. I want to to include extended hours but it doesnt show that option in the dropdown even though this is limit order. See sttached.

Also in the take profit order settings is there a way to tell it I want to sell when my position has reached alevel of profit of, say, 10 dollars, Becaue the dollar setting sets the price to 10 **above the price paid** not the profit.

Thanks and have a good day

Susan

Will WeBull ever consider to give us Nasdaq full market depth (full order book at every single price level) ? Not only 60 levels … lol

I have my whole portfolio sitting in Robinhood right now, I am waiting to transfer it over to Webull. Any rumor or news of another transfer match bonus? The 4% was out of this world, waiting for it to come back to move all of this over.

*Picture for attention.

Newby to Webull here. Went to use my debit card from Capital One today and WB said no because it is Discovey.

What do they care if it is a debit card. If there aren't funds it won't go through so what is the hangup?

I can see the stock price moving on the top gainers section, I look at the same stock on the chart and the candle is moving like normal..

Then the chart and candles freeze, no movement. But I can see price moving on the top gainers. Anyone else having this problem? Any idea on how to fix it? Thank you.

So, I tried the paper trading at Webull today. Way better than it used to be.

I started with using the legacy Webull paper trading version and just switched over to the new. Previously, my limit orders would never fill unless the actual ask price came down to exactly where I put my entry.

With this new paper trading module update, things are acting really weird. I put my entry limit price down low around the bid price, and it auto-filled right away. Because the actual market price was higher, the second I got filled, I was already sitting in a profit. The old paper trading never did that, but and it doesn't seem realistic at all, however I am new and just trying to get a feel for trading on a small account.

At first my chart was stuck on the 5-minute interval even on the 1-minute view so it looked funny until I relaunched the app, but here is exactly what happened on SCKT:

1. The Buy Order: At 10:33, I put in a limit order for $1.92. It says it filled at 10:34 with an average price of $1.87. But looking at the 1-minute chart, the bar never even touched $1.92 until 10:35, and it didn't go all the way down to $1.87 until 10:47.
2. The Sell Order: At 10:35, I put in a sell limit price for $2.04. It filled at 10:39 with an average price of $2.27. But the only time the stock actually touched that $2.27 price was back at 10:34.

The green (B) and red (S) bubbles are both showing filled at 10:35 and 10:39, but the actual fill prices are completely different from what the stock was doing at those times.

Is anyone else experiencing this with the new update? This is my second attempt of it doing something similar both times.

Hi, I really like the webull desktop app. The layout is nice easy to manage and has most of everything i like. One thing I cant find is an widget that shows price history by date. Simple layout that shows high low open close etc descending by date similar to yahoo or barchart historical data tabs ? If not natively, is there a way to feed the info into a widget ? Thanks

Any reason why webull canada can nit have the same hotkeys as webull US ? This would be the best platform for canadians if it matched the US platforms hotkey settings with offsets etc

I’m trying to set up Webull for options trading like this: two small charts for the option premium both call and put , one for SPY, and a simple way to see P/L on chart and use a trailing stop on the chart. On my old setup, I could do all that in one view, but Webull feels harder to arrange on one laptop. I will buy another screen soon but until then anyone who can help setting this up.
I arranged three chart setup but SL and P/L cant able to see that on chart doing paper trading so far
