zaxxon_32 Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) Hi, I currently trade using Tradingview linked to a Tradestation account in the UK, which is commission free. If I trade directly through Tradestation I would get charged $5 each way per trade. If I link Medved Trader to my Tradestion account would it also be commission free trades like with Tradingview? I know Medved trader is also US based, so I don't understand why it wouldn't be. Thanks Edited February 13, 2023 by zaxxon_32 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 both MT and TradeView access Tradestation via their API so I would expect the same handling. However, you would need to check with Tradestation about the details like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaxxon_32 Posted February 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 (edited) I just contacted Tradestation via live chat and they told me that although trades through TradingView are commission free, trades through Medved Trader are not commission free. When I asked them why this is the case they said "It's just the relationship we have with TV". Oh well, I guess Interactive brokers is my only decent option if I want to use Medved.

Jerry Medved Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 IB is not commission free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaxxon_32 Posted February 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 It's not commission free no, but you don't get charged a $10 international trading fee per trade. That's to much for a small account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted February 13, 2023 Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 Oh, thought you said $5. y, IB can be cheaper depending on what you trade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaxxon_32 Posted February 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2023 I think its $5 each way (buy/sell). Yeah with IB I think it's more like $1 commission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
