    They charge 1% rounded up to the nearest penny.

    Made a US listed trade today and the FX charge on the contract note is as expected.

    Yeah they seem to be cheaper than most of the UK brokers. Cheapest I’ve come across so far is De Giro who only charge 10bp though there are a few other fees such as dividend processing fee etc though relatively small compared to the fx fee saving.
