you can go to the IB website and click on commissions and then find your market (I'm not familiar with it) and see the commission. they have everything listed.

Thanks to both.

It seems more expensive compared to
other future brokers.

Wow. Bad platform with lousy executions and higher commissions, isn't this a treat. No more MKT PRT (which resulted in better fills 90% of the time) orders either.

What is market PRT?

I thought IB had the lowest commissions. Can you suggest someone better?

Market with Protection executes at the current best price and submits the remaining at closest limit. I believe it's generally used for large orders to reduce slippage, however it works (worked) great for me during relatively quiet hours compared with regular MKT. IB commissions is what I was talking about (2.75 vs. 2.40).

$5.50 RT is the bundled price.

Unbundled for TF starts at $4.30 RT ( ($1.20 + $0.94 + 0.01) X 2 ).

Unbundled for TO starts at $5.12 RT ( ($1.20 + $1.35 + 0.01) X 2 ).
