SEC Section 31
In addition to your regular commission, a separate transaction fee (equal to the
principal amount x 0.00002180) will apply to the sale of all equitites, options, and
exchange-traded fund (ETF) securities. The fee, calculated as stated above, only applies
to the sale of equitites, options, and ETF securities and will be displayed on your
trade confirmation. The transaction fee is a fee collected by the United State
Securities and Exchange Commission to recover the costs to the Government for the
supervision and regulation of the securities markets and securities professionals. All
fees will be rounded to the next penny.
|
Foreign Transaction Tax
Some securities traded in the U.S. markets, American Depository Receipts (ADR) are an
example, can be subject to foreign transaction tax collection. The amount and method of
calculation can vary from country to country. Please note that by executing transactions
in the subjected securities our account will be subject to the foreign financial
transaction tax. As a tax, this fee is not rolled into the cost of the trade but rather
collected at a later date.
|
*All fees listed are in addition to normal commission rate. Routes
ARCA-PMKT, CSFB-COBRA, SPD-RTE and VAN_DESK are subject to $1.00/trade fee on the RealTick
and RealTick Express platforms. ECN rebates do not apply to stocks below $1.00. ECN rebates
cannot bring the total commission on any given trade below $0.00. All fees are subject to
change without notice. This page is a good faith estimate of the current rates but may not
be completely accurate. Cobra Trading is not liable for any discrepancies between listed
rates and the actual rates applied.
**If necessary, we reserve the right to charge or adjust for venue, routing, or exchange
fees based on vendor changes in routing rates. We reserve the right to mark up or adjust any
routing fees at our sole discretion. Clients trading on per ticket rates are not eligible
for ECN rebates unless agreed to in writing by management. We do receive payment for order
flow when routing certain equity and options orders with specific routes or market centers,
more information available upon request. There may be other routes available that are not
listed here, which may charge a fee. You should always call and check the fee on any route
before using it.

utilize margin to hold positions overnight. For that reason we believe our low margin rates can
help you as a trader keep your costs in line and allow you to keep more of your hard earned
money.
