IBKR Smart route and order fills.

[TheBigShort]

Interesting thread, thank you @TheBigShort
My Strategy Builder only have the possibility of smart routing. How do you choose the route ?
If I place an individual option order I have the chance to choose the routing but not if it's a combo order.

If your on Mosaic layout....
order entry -> type ticker -> press enter ->combinations -> drop down -> option combos directed -> cboe (wait 5 seconds for load) -> use strategy to build what you want -> hit ok -> it should populate in order entry.

If there is a faster way, plz let me know. But this is what the nice lady at IB told me

Thank you.
It seems a little bit laborious.
There should be the possibility to route the orders from the strategy builder in the option chain.
Maybe they are not interested in make it so easy.

Extremely helpful. Thank you. What's interesting is IB said this was not possible when I called them.

After quite a long time bantering with Thomas Peterffy, IB finally has a little drop down to choose which exchange to send it too.

I'm not sure your wording is correct, so I would rather re-state.

On Lightspeed Trader, to protect us from maker taker and exchange fees, we offer either SMART routing for equity options with no additional fees and a flat charge for ETFs or choosing an exchange. I can add a process where we can track maker-taker fees and avoid the posted fees. If I do that, you can choose SMART or a route. The SMART route avoids maker taker fees and the choice of routes subjects you to those maker/taker fees. On all cash settled symbols, we pass through those fees. I know this is very complicated. I wish it were not.

On the other platfrom, those posted fees do not apply, because we can track maker-taker fees and reconcile them at end of month. Except for cash settled symbols, on the other platforms, SMART orders have no exchange fees. Choosing a route subjects you to those fees/credits.

Happy to describe this better on a call.

what's your flat fees for ETFs?
