So far, what is your impression of IB as a broker?

Overall I really like IB as a broker. It's more geared towards professional traders/institutions. They have a higher minimum deposit of 10K. There commissions for Forex trading maybe a little bit higher, but there spreads are tighter from what I've seen..

This thread is not for discussing brokers, it is in the introduction section.

The correct thread forum is here:

Please help keep nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) organized.
