IBKR Group History

1977
  • Thomas Peterffy, the Chairman of the Interactive Brokers Group, buys a seat on the American Stock Exchange (AMEX) and becomes a member, trading as an individual market maker in equity options.
1978
  • T.P. & Co. is formed to expand trading activities to several members under badge number 549. The firm is the first to use computer-generated fair value sheets printed daily.
1979
  • T.P. & Co. expands to four employees, three of whom are AMEX members.
1980
  • Plans are made to restructure the operation and identify price anomalies in several securities simultaneously.
1981
  • Efforts are made to code and test a system that identifies potential delta neutral trade pairs. Our greatest challenge is how to read the prices of options as they are posted electronically.
1982
  • Timber Hill Inc. is formed. Initially, the company trades equity options at the AMEX, clearing through Spear, Leeds & Kellogg. Traders receive telephone instructions identifying pairs and prices.
1983
  • Timber Hill created the first handheld computers used for trading. Their ability to track positions and continually re-price options on one stock quickly gives Timber Hill traders an advantage over their counterparts at the exchange, who continue to use fair value pricing sheets that are updated only once or twice a day.
  • Timber Hill begins trading at the Philadelphia Stock Exchange.
  • Timber Hill expands to 12 employees.
1984
  • Timber Hill began coding a computerised stock index futures and options trading system.
  • Timber Hill becomes a member of The Options Clearing Corporation.
1985
  • In February, Timber Hill’s new computer system and network are brought online, ushering in a new era of computerised trading. The system allows Timber Hill to price and manage risk on a portfolio of equity derivatives traded in multiple locations around the country.
  • We install stacks of computer screens on the exchange floors at strategic locations. They are connected to our computer systems in our offices. The screens show our traders, with colour coded strips so that they can be read from a distance, the firm’s bids and offer for the various products traded on the exchange. The screens also take touch input so that completed trades are input.
  • Timber Hill becomes a member of the New York Futures Exchange.
  • Timber Hill begins trading at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME), the Chicago Board of Trade and the Chicago Board Options Exchange.
1986
  • Timber Hill has become a member of the Pacific Stock Exchange and the Options Division of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), enabling the firm to make automated markets on all US options exchanges.
  • The trading software is rewritten to run on SUN workstations, increasing processing speed.
  • The firm’s traders generate a 430% return on equity for the year with the new system.
  • The trading software is rewritten to run on SUN workstations, increasing processing speed.
1987
  • Timber Hill becomes self-clearing inequities, joining the National Securities Clearing Corp. and the Depository Trust Company.
  • The stock market crash creates the impetus for cross margining between clearinghouses, with Timber Hill as a major proponent, as Peterffy is a member of the Board of the Options Clearing Corporation. (Cross-margining emerges several years later).
  • Timber Hill expands to 67 employees, most of them on exchange floors, trading with often changing, coloured striped screens.
  • The first automated trader on Wall Street. Timber Hill establishes a fully automated trading system where its computers trade directly with NASDAQ’s Central Matching computer without any human other than NASDAQ traders and brokers.

  • Timber Hill Deutschland GmbH is incorporated in Germany and, shortly after that, begins trading equity derivatives at the Deutsche Terminborse (DTB), now Eurex. This is Timber Hill’s first application of its trading system on a fully automated exchange.

1992
  • Timber Hill expands its European trading to the Swiss Options and Financial Futures Exchange (SOFFEX), another fully automated exchange.
  • Timber Hill expands to 142 employees.
1993
  • Timber Hill Europe AG is incorporated in Switzerland and takes over the Group’s trading at SOFFEX.
  • In the United States, Timber Hill floor traders began using commercially available handheld computers on the exchange floors, communicating by radio with the firm’s Central pricing system. The handheld allows traders to create electronic trade tickets.
  • The CME permits the company to be represented in the trading pit by floor traders holding handheld computers connected by radio waves, giving the impetus for brokerage. Our clients could INTERACT with the world through the pit and our traders with the screens.
