Amounts listed with a negative (-) value are charges applied to your trades and are in addition to your commission charges. Amounts shown as a positive integer are rebates to your trades and may lower the overall cost of trading. Equities trading in securities less than $1.00 per share are subject to different executing broker fees and are not eligible for rebates. There may be additional fees.
