QUOTE(Sunshape @ Oct 11 2024, 12:43 PM) IBKR web portal is very slow and unresponsive. I already set session logout time to be 60 mins and still always told me your session has expired after 5 mins inactivity. Please logout and relogin again. That's a well-known issue. Have you tried the desktop Trader Workstation software? You only need 1 login around 11:45 am (or 11:45 pm, depending on time zone setting) every day. |

Stumbled across this method to send OCBS sg USD balance to DBS sg USD balance QUOTE Get a local USD cashier order from OCBC and deposit it in DBS. I think it should be free if it's made out to yourself. https://www.reddit.com/r/singaporefi/commen...bc_fcy_account/ |

One big advantage of TWS over the web portal is you get to choose more complicated order types and the exchanges to route to. You don't have to use all the features though, just basic ones like routing submitting buy/sell orders, basic charting functions (if needed) etc. |

QUOTE(Sunshape @ Oct 11 2024, 02:06 PM) Haven't used that yet. Maybe you can try and see if it fits your needs. It definitely looks cleaner than TWS from the screenshots I see so far. |

It is not that hard. 1. You need to notify IBKR that you are sending money from ABC bank. 2. They will give you the details of the IBKR bank account to bank in the money. Each bank account number is unique and different. Also they give ask your to include in the IBKR account number into your transfer info. 3. Login to your bank, fill up all details as provided by IBKR |

The issue might be my bank has ACH transfer only, no SWIFT, while I wrongly used SWIFT in IBKR. Just resent using ACH info. |

cool, so i learnt something new about ACH today QUOTE What are the fees to deposit and withdraw US dollars?
US dollar deposits via the ACH network cost $0.50+ 0.1% of the transaction value while Fedwire deposits cost $20 + 0.1% of the transaction value.
Withdrawals through Fedwire are not supported and withdrawals via the via the (sic, yes original text had duplicated text) ACH network cost $30 + 0.15% of the transaction value . https://customersupport.xapo.com/en_us/what...llars-Syi7j49iaThis post has been edited by Medufsaid: Oct 12 2024, 10:34 AM |
