hopefully thats not what IB is actually charging right? DAS just did this for the trading challenge? Part of doing the trading sim challenge was to get a handle on IB fees.

ya but i cant sell my open positions off.... was up $200

I've been reading that tiered is the cheapest but I don't know. @Robert H

Anyone with experience with IB commissions give me a few examples of total cost to get in and out of a trade, scaling? Ballpark would be great. Example 1 - 1000 shares in $30 stock. Scaling 25% out 3 times and then taking 100% out? Example 2 - 1000 shares in $30 stock. Stop out, selling 1000 shares.
