Hi,
Im trying to see if I got IB commisions structure correctly:
https://individuals.interactivebrokers.com/en/p.php?f=commission
It is a "cost plus" where you need to add-up different commisions, here is the excel I came up with,
anyone has experience with that?

@YuvalW , thanks for this. I was looking for this in fact, as the IB site is not very helpful with their examples on Cost Plus.
But your spreadsheet does not seem to show the liquidity rebates?

Hi Mike,
I've been on the "cost plus" structure for quite some time, and honestly I never understood the commissions, it is quite complicated because it depends where the order is routed to.
Anyway, here is a sample for some commissions I paid:
