Thanks Robert. I have posted your answer on a European board.

The title says it all: Which brokers are using IB as their clearing firm? Any hints? Thanks

Unfortunately NO LOW taxes for traders plus ca 10% of income to be paid additionally to obligatory pension scheme AHV (no opt out possible). So I left.

Unfortunately "The Bull" won`t qualify - as it`s a free strategy. But it works.

Thanks Any info available regarding costs per RT at ADM? Thanks again

It`s just the ICE people, the Russel2000 (Rut) was also (an additinoal)120 bucks p.m, so I didn`t trade it til it migrated midyear to CBOE. Which symbol do you use to trade the FTSE options? Thanks

Thanks or your speedy reply. I wouldn`t complain about USD 30 p.m., but the fee I was quoted for FTSE Futures Options was about USD 100 p.m. To much as a regular burden. I trade longer terms as well, getting in with flies or credit spreads at around 100 DTE, holding for about 25 days. But I need...

Yes commissions are cheap - data fees for uk options aren`t - unfortunately. I`d love to trade Ftse100 options but don`t know how to overcome that hurdle. Or am I missing something? I `d use IB UK and SaxoCH. Kind regards

You don`t need 10k minimum to open an IB account going through Lynx(and others like CapTrader) as an introducing broker.

You seem to know me quite well: I left he US when I received my draft letter, I left London when the Noveau Riches Arabs moved in, I went to Jeddah which I really enjoyed for many years. I have NO preference for germanic or even teutonic countries due to their high degree of govermental control...

I always enjoy the trustwothy and truthful information supplied by the experienced journalist. Their comments about the upcoming presidency of Mrs. Clinton and the outcome of Brexit was just as helpful. And now they made be aware that from health care point of view the best place for a...

Charged almost a year ago - what`s the actual situation?

Why not use an Introducing Broker for Interactive Brokers like Captrader in Germany or Lynx in NL. Both initial funding discussable (shouldn`t be more than 4K) but higher commissions (also discussable) than original.

Yes, I`m as risk averse as you could be ---- making my money with naked put selling mainly since many years, survived many black swan events (when Karen didn`t). But I can report that I know of a person, retired US military colonel, who lives and trades in RAMSTEIN, Germany. He is NOT liable to...

I don`t deny, that there are jurisdictions with bent or neglected tax laws. Would you like to park your money in such a jurisdiction? Would the preferred brokers like it? And btw, it`s a speciality of taxation, that it might catch you after many years (..and chnges in enforcement, laws, persons...

I only know of 1 broker that allows corporate accounts without personal guarantee by CEO. This fortunately is IB. But this was with swiss LLC, not bulgarian. Regards

DW, Congratulations, very good. Was that online or by personal visit? Regarding TOS you obviously are then not an EU resident? I will pm you for the trick regarding US banks. Its a real hassle for me with many US brokers but without a US bank for the clearing between them. Thanks

If you would like a IB US account ADDITIONALLY, let me know

Yes IB are great .... but did they allow you to open NOW a US account? Thanks

, Yeah, it works ........ FOR THEM!!!!
