<<<over 500 it is .05 per share. So 1000 shares will cost you $7.50>>> This is not correct. Your information is old. interactivebrokers.com There is "Maximum per Order" which is .2% of trade value 10,000 shares of $.20 stock will cost you $4 in commissions. The big limitation is that IB doesn't trade pink sheet stocks.

For worldwide trading nothing beats IB in my opinion - By this I mean access to more currency, equity, commodity, and rate markets the world over at decent cost in one platform. Many other platforms will beat IB at any one or more - but not all. On the BB/Pink issue, IB is bad and I've always kept an Ameritrade account for that twice a year or so madness when I discover the next MSFT trading at .0004 cents! I can buy a million shares for 10.95$ Geo.
