Options other than IB for option traders in Canada?

Yes. So if you sell a put and cover it later commisions are 3$ vs $22.50.

hmm. Also just realized that if assigned TD charges about 40$ for that; no charge at IB.

Those are moot points.


  • Just adjust your trading to bring the commissions per trade down by buying/selling more contracts. Even a 1 contract trade is no big deal.
  • Watch your trades and don't be assigned. That's easy.
  • The no minimum to open an account versus $10,000 USD ($10,855 CAD) is a major plus.
