Cost of a Roundturn?

Recommended Posts

Hallo, I´m am planning a new strategy with a orderbook. There is one thing in my mind, it is a irrefutable argument, the costs of a roundturn. Have anybody here a answer. How much paid a institutional Trader for a roundturn?

 

 

Many regards

ceel

Hi, trade4doug,

 

you are kidding me. For $4.80 I bring the order on foot to exchange. Now I have self researched and at IB is it possible to get roundturn up to $0.30.

But I don´t think that is the last word.

Ceel,

 

Would you mind sharing how?

I thought IB would charge around $4.30 for futures for ex.

 

You can check out commissions, fees and other costs at their website:

Futures are around 4.80$/roundtrip, but stocks are lot less (which is probably what ceel is talking about).

Hallo ZenMaschine,

 

I work with Eurex-contracts and big players make a lot of trades. They have a discount on their charge by IB. If your tradevolume is bigger than 20000 halfturns than your charge is only $0,25. As a privat trader with a small stake I think you have no chance against the big player. Therefore my idea to develop a orderbook-system makes no sense.

 

Many regards

ceel

Slightly changing the topic and now I'm asking about Forex -

IB charges minimum of $2.50 per order. They treat modified orders as cancel/new orders so each modified order costs the same.

 

Whereas in Japan, some brokers seem to charge NO commision. On top of it, their spread seem to be very small, maximum leverage is 200-500x, and minimum starting account is abou $50 - $100.

 

I haven't really looked into these brokers, but it seems that it's a lot easier in Japan to start forex trading and keep the cost low.

Does anyone have any experience with these brokers? I wonder if they allow overseas traders to have accounts with them?

Some of them seem to very low cost - low spread and NO commision (depending on the volume). On top of it, their minimum starting account is $50 to $100, with leverage of 200x to 500x.

I've been with Mirus for almost six months now and I have no complaints. I've never had any problems so I can't comment on their customer service or trade desk, but so far I'm quite content with Mirus.

    • Question: To those that had/have cancer, what were the signs that made you think “something is not right here” to make you go see a doctor? Answer: So, 5/25/2018, I woke up, got ready for work, and as I walked to my car, I started gagging. Like something was stuck in my throat and I needed to clear it. And then it went away.   But 10 minutes after that, I was T-boned at 40mph on the driver side door. But what made me see a doctor was while my muscles felt better and bruises were going away, the gagging still continued, I started having fevers, my neck felt swollen, I was having such a hard time breathing, and I'd have random sharp pains in my chest, but not from where the seat belt saved me.   2 weeks after the accident, I finally see an urgent care doctor, who looks me over, tells me I'm fine, but luckily requests a neck X-ray. And I ask for a chest X-ray, which he rolls his eyes but let me have (most of my pain was in the neck, so I understand).   The very next day, he calls and says “So, that chest X-ray shows there's a 4 inch mass on your heart and lungs, and your lungs have been filling up with fluid, as well as in your pericardial (heart) wall. We need you to come in tomorrow.”   Turns out the big mass, due to the accident, caused my heart and lungs to tear and fill with fluid, the swollen neck and gagging was caused by 2 metastasized tumors, and the fevers and weight loss were symptoms. Stage 4b Hodgkin's Lymphoma.   But thankfully, we went very aggressive with chemo (and had a lot of bad side effects that don't normally happen to patients), and now I'm about 16 months cancer-free. Yay lucky X-rays!

    • As a man, the reality of life is the harshest part. I don’t mind looking older or becoming weaker over time; it’s nature.   Have you ever heard that the only people who will be loved unconditionally are women and children? Men will only be loved as long as they can provide until they are no longer needed. It doesn’t matter if you already did your best to get your kids to the best school or get the best things for them, if you stop before they’re done with it, there will be no thank you. The only thing they will remember is that they have to quit school at 15, ignoring all the previous 15 years of life you provided for them. The only people who will accept you, no matter what, are your parents. But in this situation, you might be that ungrateful child.   EDIT: Wow, I didn’t think this would get so much attention.   For those who disagree, I can only say that everyone has their problem. If you don’t get the chance to face such a thing, be grateful.
