Is Interactive Brokers Stock A Buy?

Interactive Brokers stock broke out earlier, but has fallen back below the prior 95.59 entry from a cup without handle. If a stock you're tracking clears a buy point then retreats 7% or more below the original entry price, it's considered a failed base. Wait for the stock to set up and breakout from a new base and buy point. Also understand that the most recent consolidation is a later-stage base, and those involve more risk.

The Greenwich, Conn-based brokerage company posted 17% earnings growth in the latest quarterly report, while sales growth came in at -25%.

Interactive Brokers stock earns the No. 4 rank among its peers in the Finance-Investment Banking/Brokers industry group. XP and Ameriprise Financial are also among the group's highest-rated stocks.
