anyone using IBKR? I just got my new account ready but why they're charging fee when it claim the stock trading is 0% fee?
eg. i try to place an order APPL for $160, and when preview the order it show it need to have $161, which is $1 fee incured.

QUOTE(TOS @ Mar 23 2022, 04:17 PM) Yes, if you count explicit costs (front-end fees and commission). But there are "back-end" payment of order flow charges reflected in your stock purchase/selling price. Also, some others complained about funding TDA before. https://www.tdameritrade.com.sg/why-td-amer...nd-funding.htmlIf you have bank accounts in SG, life would be easier for you. I have SG and US bank account, so funding should be no issue. But wonder TD have better rate if i'm opening account as US instead SG?
