Did you guys notice this?

Under the financial instrument in TWS, I bought SXR8.
but if I go via the portal and under report > trades, it says CXPS as trade symbol.

Why they use two different symbols for the same product? Very confusing!

my guess is smart routed your order to a different exchange and bought it under that cspx ticker

same product can have different ticker at different exchange...you go to blackrock site and it shows all the tickers

all the best

I got email saying account approved...only then I fund it

I was about to say this. That's what I remember too.

Hi Ramjade,

I am an IB pro account holder for 2 years now, every month, they charge me for $20 plus (for inactive fee + real time data).
And I only trade US stocks and ETF.

Do you think I could switch my account to lite, to save this monthly charges?

What are the different between IB pro and lite if I only trade US stocks and ETF?

He's using whitelabels to skip the charges.
Do you know "whitelabels"?

No, most of us are not subscribed to real time data.

Lite is only available to US & India residents.

hi all sifu sifu, my IBKR account just approved. May i know how can i check whether is white label or not? because when i open account, there's no product for me to choose.

which website you sign up for it?

https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/home.php

from here

that will be ibkr llc... the hq/U.S. company...your will be on ibkr pro account

white label introducing brokers are tradestation-global, a UK company or Captrader, a German company.

Not sifu.
Depends on which website you sign up for in the first place.
It can be found under statements.

Should be fine. Once your IBKR account is opened, follow TradeStation Global's instructions on their website to move your account. If you applied via TradeStation Global account, you don't have to do anything.

In the TWS, how do I see the % of unrealised profit?
I can see the actual unrealised profit but I want to see a percentage. Where do I find it?

By the way, what is that Adaptive algo?

everytime I submit the order, it says it'll adopt a difference min fees.

edit the columns...add p&l% to it

it's explained by ibkr...

thanks!!

I kinda understand the algorithm, but I'm not sure about the fees. TradeStation Global also didn't mention anything about this algorithm fees.

edit: typo

Just use one platform or less you are going to get confused.

if you have big orders it may try to chop it up and execute at different exchanges...this will attract different fees

example when I select Amsterdam exchange I get a fixed fee, when I select Smart/Algo I get a range of fees...the upper limit can be 3x as much as the fixed fee

what? f.... I've been using smart algo all the time.

This only applies to the exchange fees? It's still considered as one order?
For example, 100 unit at Xetra. They sliced it into 50 unit at Xetra, 50 at LSE. Then how?
Min €1.75 per order for Xetra; min £1.50 per order for LSE. So I'll be paying for both fees plus their respective exchange fees?
