Looks like IB is $1.82 (0.90 + 0.90 + 0.02) per side for YM for unbundled if you don't hold overnight, with no volume requirement. Over 300 contracts per month, it drops $0.20 per side. Over 1000 contracts per month, it drops another $0.25 per side. Save another $0.60-0.80 per side by getting a CBOT membership (I don't remember which one).

You forgot the 0.30 per side clearing fee

IB's one way for ECBOT YM
Unbundled (By volume)

<=300 $2.12
<=1K $1.92
<=10K $1.57
<=20K $1.37
> 20K $1.17

Bundled $2.13

Seems competitive to me.

Thanks - I knew there was something missing, but couldn't see what.

In IB margin account,
Can I buy OTCBB stock by margin?
If possible, can I buy $3.1 OTCBB stock by margin ?
