I wish to open a UK IB account and have a query about funding it. Can I do a BACS transfer from a UK bank account ? Alternatively, can I write a cheque in sterling or use my debit card ? Also, does IB do BACS transfers to a UK bank account when one needs to withdraw cash ? Thanks in advance.

No - Min account with IB is $10,000 or equivalent in GBP
Try optionsXpress - I have used them for years.
You want to trade in the Interactive Brokers with a deposit of over $ 10 000?
Hi IB,
I have saved a couple of chart templates, and I want to use one of them as default when I open up a chart from the market scanner. Is that possible?
I can right click on a normal Quote Monitor page, "Charts", then one of my templates, but this option is not available in the market scanner page, and I can only right click, "Analysis", then "Realtime Charts"
Cheers,
Adrian

hi, I opened an account and got the confirmation. I launched the TradeWorkstation, but I could only see two sample quotes. I think it is because my fund has not arrived yet, Will I be able to see all the quotes if my fund arrives?
And I notice quotes of many markets are not free (are the fees listed monthly fee, by the way?). Can I trade the stocks/futures/FX... even if I don't get the quote service from you (I may find quotes elsewhere)?

Dear Client
Answers to your questions:
1. You can only trade when your account is funded.
2. Real-time market data comes from the exchanges which charge a fee, per month. We do support in some markets delayed market data, at no cost. For FX there are no market data fees.

Cancel this question - I have found the 'Group' function to resolve this issue nicely.

Another question if I may...
Does IB throttle their charts at all? I have a group set up that includes T&S, Charttrader, Market Depth and a portfolio page. If I click about 5 symbols, one after another in under about 1 minute, the last chart page is blank for about 1-2 minutes. I'm looking at 3 minute bars.

Adrian

I would be very interested in user experiences of the interactive SIPP - it seems you have to go through a provider. Again any recommendations (or firms to avoid) much appreciated.

Hey, I was looking at the website and it almost seems a little too information-overloady for me
I am definitely very interested in opening an account, as I use Scottrade currently and pay $7/trade! O_O
Anyway, just to confirm...
New accounts to trade US Stocks:
$2,000 USD min. to open
.005/share commission or min. of $1; max of .2% of principal
$10/mo fixed fee.
If I initially deposited $2,000 would I be eligible for options trading? Long calls/puts is what I would like to do. Also, are there minimum maintenance fees or minimum trade fees?
Thanks! It's nice to have direct interaction with people who work for the company or have used it and recommend itI would call in personally but its pretty late here..
I use www.cannontrading.com - super simple and reall nice brokers
