Just completed the test transfer, it was surprisingly fast.
eMulti-Currency US$ Remit to TDA WellsFargo.

For the transaction I did there were no bank charges.
For reference I completed my DBS S$-> FSM S$-US$ -> DBS US$-> TDA US Wells Fargo bank within 7 business days.

Yes you can. follow their deposit instruction under account centre > deposit> wire transfer.

Thanks for the update. When FSM US$ hit your DBS mulicurrency account, was there no incoming wire transfer fee?

I just found out that the zero commissions on trading didn't apply to futures contracts. Only equities. I guess I'll just use TD to trade equities and stick to my IB for futures.

The cost for futures trading on TDA is so high compared to IB

There was no transfer fee. there was even an additional 1cent of interest from fsm :s11:

*Edit* checked my statement, there was no inward fee on it. only saw an fall below fee as I forgot to keep S$3k in the sg side of the account.

How much is the savings u had for spread for doing FSM route versus direct TD?

cant recall, iirc DBS spread is like 4-5 times of FSM
TDA SG$ account is DBS but they should have slightly preferred rate, so I wont know.

But for withdrawal of USD from TD will have a fee correct?
