  1. Their staff should stop contradicting themselves.
    Anyway the non-US website still shows normal fees.

  2. Zero chance of Treasure Island( UK) getting free comms- we get smashed to bits by prices of everything from shirts to sheds.

    Maybe (hopefully) some non-US staff is not aware yet...

    I am still confused. Do the same IB pro terms and conditions apply to non-US traders? I.e. is it cofirmed that no pro client's order flow are sold regardless of where they reside?

  6. The new IB Lite is only an option for US residents. That is stated directly in the press release. Order flow will be sold. That is also stated directly in the press release.

    IB Pro, which is currently the only option for non-US residents, is equal to the old IB with direct market access.
