What contract fee should I negotiate for?

Asked 5 years ago

I’m currently paying the default .65 per contract on TD. Curious what fee everyone else is paying, per contract? Getting ready to negotiate with TD and want to know the range I should target.

It depends on the quantity of assets you have on the market, and what price you think is reasonable. Also, are your trade options high enough to warrant a deduction? I mean i would go with 0.40 and agree somewhere in the middle, like 0.55 as a final offer.  You can always renegotiate further down the line.
