..Exchange Cancel and/or Modify Order Fees
Many exchanges charge fees to their members for orders that are cancelled or modified, and IB charges certain related fees to its customers to help cover these exchange fees. Please note however, that the Modify/Cancel fees listed above may not be a direct "pass-through" of exchange fees in all cases as IB has created cancellation policy based on ease of implementation and proper resource allocation.

..Exchange Trade Bust/Trade Adjust Fees
If an exchange or other market center charges to IB a trade bust or trade cancel fee or trade adjust fee because of an order placed by an PTI ProDirect customer, or because of a customer bust or adjust request, the customer is fully responsible for the fee and the fee will be deducted from the customer’s account.
 
..Specialist Pass Through Fees
The NYSE specialists charge substantial handling fees, typically $0.01 USD per share, for orders residing on their order book (i.e. not executed) for more than 5 minutes. Customers who make excessive use of NYSE directed orders such that substantial specialist costs are incurred by IB, may be charged these specialist fees as a pass-through. In general, if the volume of directed orders incurring specialist charges is less than 5% of the total volume traded in the account, there will be no pass through of the charges. Traders can avoid the specialist fee problem by using IB SMART routing.
