Offshore Brokerage Firms

Discussion in 'Retail Brokers' started by UnderGround, Sep 10, 2002.

  1. Hey does any one have a list of good offshore brokerage firms? Also does anyone now of some which are not going to kill me on a round turn per trade. I would like something under 5.00 dollars but I don't believe I'm going to find that, hopefully something close.

    Thanks for your help.
    :D

    It may depend on where you are, what exactly you mean by offshore, and what you want to trade, but many combinations are OK at IB, with US$2.40 commish (4.80 round turn).

    If you are trying to illegally evade taxes. Please don't call or open an account with IB.

    If I'm reading the intention of your post incorrectly, my apologies.
