Thanks everyone for the help! Below I compare the estimated cost of IB and Oanda. Cost of a $200,000 (2 big lots) EUR/USD round trip during normal market conditions: Oanda: 1.5 spread X 20 = $30 IB: the spread changes between 1-2 so I calculate with a 1.5 pip spread...

Thanks very much! IB has about the same commissions than PROACTIVEFUTURES. Just a final question! I looked at the bundled and unbundled commission comparison table and it seemed that the unbundled was always cheaper. Why would a daytrader choose the bundled commission?
