Interactive Brokers (IBKR)

[icoolboy123]

Can I check for IBKR's $100k USD requirement, it takes into account all your holdings (not only those in USD right)?

So they will essentially convert all your holdings into USD100k to see if you have met the requirement.

Thanks much!

IBKR lite is only for US customers. Even if Singaporeans reside in Singapore were allowed to open ibkr lite, SGX trading fees is very high, so wont be of any use.

Can I confirm that on tiered IBKR, if I buy LSE-domiciled stocks like IWDA, incurring ~1.5 USD per trade is normal (e.g: buying 1,000 USD worth of IWDA each time)?

should be more than 1.5. around 1.7/9 now given the fx.

the "breakeven" is around 3.4k.

Was pleasantly surprised my account literally got approved in half a day from the time I uploaded my photo ID. Its too fast for me to even figure out how and where to enter referral code. Or is it too late now that account was already opened?
