Market Data Fees
Subscription Billing
Market data and research subscription fees are assessed on the day of subscribing and on the first business day of each subsequent month for as long as the services are active. For minimum equity requirements in order to subscribe to market data, please click here.
Subscription fees are assessed based on the number of users subscribed to the service on an account. If multiple users are subscribed, there will be multiple charges assessed to the account.
We provide real-time streaming market data for the prices listed in the sections below. You can also choose to receive free delayed market data for financial instruments for which you do not currently hold market data subscriptions. In addition, for clients who do not need streaming real-time quotes for US listed stocks you can choose a per quote option where you only pay USD 0.01 per quote request. With this service, you will also receive US futures (if you are a Non-Professional and have US Futures trading permissions) and US bonds, as well as OTC Markets, Dow Jones Indices and CBOE Market Data Express Indices. Refer to the North America > United States market data fees table below for details.
Professional versus Non-Professional
Most exchanges and data vendors classify clients as either non-professional or professional. By default, organizations such as corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships and any account where the data is used for more than personal investment purposes is deemed to be professional. In addition, private persons may be considered professional if they are registered as a security or investment advisor, or act in a similar capacity. A trader who is employed by a financial services business may also be considered a professional. Click here for more information about non-professional qualifications.
Subscriptions to IB's FX markets are free and automatically enabled when you are approved for Global FOREX trading permissions.

Market Data Display
How Market Data is Allocated
In order to receive real-time market data, customers must be a subscriber to market data. All clients initially receive 100 concurrent lines of real-time market data (which can be displayed in TWS or via the API) and always have a minimum of 100 lines of data. After the first month of trading, the quantity of market data is allocated using the greater value of:
- USD monthly commissions divided by 8
- USD equity multiplied by 100 divided by $1,000,000
(rounded down to the nearest integer) - 100
- Example 1:
In month two, your account shows the following values: USD Monthly Commissions: $16, USD Equity: $950,000
Using the calculations above, you would still receive the minimum 100 lines of data, since: $16/8 = 2
$950,000 x 100 / $1,000,000 = 95 - Example 2:
In month three, your account shows the following values: USD Monthly Commissions: $500, USD Equity: $1,245,000
Using the calculations above, you would receive 124 lines of data, since: $500/8 = 62.5
$1,245,000 x 100 / $1,000,000 = 124.5, rounded down to 124.
The number of symbols that can be viewed simultaneously via the TWS deep book windows (including BookTrader, Market Depth and ISW) is determined as follows: one unique symbol for every 100 allowed lines of market data, with a minimum of three and a maximum of 60. For example, a client with the default allowance of 100 tickers will be able to simultaneously view three deep book windows. A client who, based on commissions, equity or other criteria, is allowed 500 tickers will be able to simultaneously view five deep book windows. Note that this number may change month to month if the number of allowed tickers for your account changes.
Snapshot
A Snapshot subscription allows users the ability to request a singular instance, non-streaming quote of market data for an individual stock. Snapshot quotes do not update and do not refresh on their own. They are an alternative to streaming quotes as users are charged on a per request basis as opposed to a monthly flat fee. Charges for Snapshot requests are typically USD 0.01 and are capped when the dollar value of requests for a certain Network reaches the dollar value of the respective Network streaming service.
Sample Snapshot Caps:
| Listed Network Feed | Price per Snapshot Quote | Subscriber Status | Capped Snapshot | Streaming Service Activated |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AMEX (Network B/CTA) | USD 0.01 | Non-Pro | 150 | AMEX (Network B/CTA) (NP,L1) |
| AMEX (Network B/CTA) | USD 0.01 | Pro | 2300 | AMEX (Network B/CTA) (P,L1) |
| NASDAQ (Network C/UTP) | USD 0.01 | Non-Pro | 150 | NASDAQ (Network C/UTP) (NP,L1) |
| NASDAQ (Network C/UTP) | USD 0.01 | Pro | 2300 | NASDAQ (Network C/UTP) (P,L1) |
| NYSE (Network A/CTA) | USD 0.01 | Non-Pro | 150 | NYSE (Network A/CTA) (NP,L1) |
| NYSE (Network A/CTA) | USD 0.01 | Pro | 4500 | NYSE (Network A/CTA) (P,L1) |

Disclosures
- * FREE TRIAL - Receive free for a 30 day period from date of subscription. The free trial subscription will terminate once the 30 day period is over. Once the trial data has terminated, the account may elect to re-subscribe to continue receiving the data. Should the trial data terminate mid-month and the election is made to re-subscribe, a full month charge will be levied as the exchanges do not prorate fees. For example, an account subscribing to a service subject to a free trial on October 15 will receive data for free until November 14. Should the account wish to continue receiving data past the 14th, the account must log into Account Management and re-subscribe once the data has terminated. The re-subscription will result in a full month charge for November. This data will then continue until the account unsubscribes from the service.
- Market Data and Research Subscription Termination - If you do not log into Trader Workstation (TWS) for 60 days, you will be notified that your active market data and research subscriptions will expire at the end of the current month. You can avoid subscription termination by logging into TWS or by choosing to continue the subscriptions on the Market Data and Research pages in Account Management.
- Market data subscription costs will not be pro-rated. Users who subscribe to or unsubscribe from data mid-month will be charged at the full month rate.
- $7 fee assessed on months that commissions total less than $30.
- $3 fee assessed on months that commissions total less than $30.
