Anyone use TD Ameritrade?

[_dXter]

How about ACAT transfer from another broker?

Oh like funding ibkr/fsm and then funding td ameritrade via that ibkr/fsm?

Anyone tried if that works? Seems a bit of a round about but anything to save on the painful wire fees and bank's horrible fx!

why in ibkr inside this transaction?
from my understanding its bank SG$-> fsm -> bank US$ -> TDA

then again my TDA is still pending... so I won't know.

At this point, why don’t you just use IBKR? It’s less than a $1 a trade and you’ve already got to maintain the $10 monthly, unless you intend to open, convert and transfer, then close it.

Dbs rate is bad compared to fsm and ibkr.

Difference should be about 1-1.5%

[livingcharsiew]

yes but now we have someone that has sent the fund over so we have the actual rates that we can compare
if we assume td process 2 days later
the rate they use is 2 day later rate so we compare rate from there
if not we compare on actual date send and actual date available

There's no $10 inward remittance fee?

Posted from PCWX using SM-G965F

transfer USD from FSM -> dbs eMCA .
theres no 10$ inward remittance fee cos its 'local usd cheque clearance' from dbs website.

already withdrawn twice.
takes about 3-4days (1-2day for fsm to deposit cheque and 1-2 days for dbs to clear cheque)

There was a USD20 fee from Wells Fargo when I wired USD directly to TDA US Bank.
