May I ask those who have made the switch, are there any issues or concerns after making the switch?

How long would it take to make the switch, and what's the procedure like?

How do you reduce the cost of buy/sell option on IBKR? Currently using the IBKR Pro Tiered for wheel strategy but the fees can really add up.

Saw that there's the maxRebate method to get rebate on fees if use TWS, but I'm trying on the new IBKR desktop and I think the default is just SMART routing.

Not sure if other brokers like Charles Schwab will be cheaper.

Tried withdraw USD10k from IBKR to Moomoo SG but the fees is USD35! Is there any cheaper methods to to do it? Am trying to move some money to Moomoo instead of concentrating in IBKR

Used Wise and no cost were shown, hope it'll be free and subsequent withdrawal cost USD1 at IBKR

hedfi IBKR users have 1 FOC withdrawal each month, so this Wise trx should be free. Moomoo SG can link to Wise (hopefully deposit is free)

do note that there seems to be no way to withdraw from Moomoo SG out to Wise for now. And USD convert to SGD in moomoo has a fee of 0.3-0.4%.

No ibkr USD2 per $100k conversion miracle

Was reading this book recently:

Learnt a tonne about all those exchange rebates and how HFTs and market makers profit from Main Street... Maybe should route my orders to IEX next time...

Some useful links:

https://www.thetradenews.com/lessons-learne...rom-flash-boys/

https://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/06/magazine...hael-lewis.html

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2015/03/mic...-one-year-later

https://www.reddit.com/r/CFA/comments/j5tlh...wis_flash_boys/

The book was longlisted for FT Business Book of the Year 2014.

---------------------------------------------------

Another interesting read is Dark Pools by Scott Paterson.

Through Wise downside is it's credited next day, in this case Monday but ok la, free once a month

Moomoo SG no issue cos I have CIMB SG

I convert in IBKR if I want SGD sent to Moomoo SG

I don't think it USD 1 for subsequent withdrawal. USD1 is for ACH. Wise is lousy bank to ACH as BNM only mandate RM20k limit only.

hmm. looking at how IBKR withdraws out to Wise, seems like there is no direct IBKR->Wise method. they have to withdraw out to a local US bank that partners with Wise.

so the same limitation will apply for Moomoo SG which doesn't have any partnership with US banks (all USD in Moomoo SG is parked with DBS)

IBKR > Wise free, takes one working day

Wise > Moomoo (USD to USD) could be 0.1096% (was charged USD10.96 for USD10k) took like 2 minutes to show up at Moomoo

Wise USD > Moomoo SGD would cost USD41.96 for same amount
