Interactive Brokers Frustration

After working through some platform issues with Tickblaze support, I have discovered many of the trading obstacles are with Interactive Brokers. In the Stocks Trade Room we look for pre-market open opportunities. IB does not support ETH Buy Stop, Sell Stop, or Market orders!! Tickblaze's basic trade pad options doesn't include Buy Stop Limit or Sell Stop Limit orders. And the advanced trade pad options are too cumbersome. Therefore, I must decide to (1) not trade pre-market (2) wait for the TMS feature to work (3) wait for another broker connection with better order handling (4) use a different platform to execute orders, disappointing because Tickblaze's risk-reward tool is awesome.
