There are two ways a client can be attached to your IB account:

We can add an existing client under your IB account upon a written request from the client.

Whenever your client completes a trade (open and close) , it will be shown automatically in your IB dashboard with the calculated commission. For Multi level Introducing broker clients IB commissions are calculated in real time and shown under unpaid rebate and will be settled in your IB rebate account every weekend which can then be immediately withdrawn.

You can withdraw your IB commission from your rebate account anytime you want by filling in a withdrawal from inside the Client Area/Portal to your bank account or via any other available payment solution.

Forex trading involves exchanging one currency for another, therefore currencies come in twos, in so-called trading currency pairs. A pair is the quotation of two different currencies, with the value of one currency being quoted against the other. For instance, when one refers to the exchange rate of the EUR to the USD, one quotes the relationship, or exchange rate, as EUR/USD. The first listed currency is called the base currency, and the second currency is called the quote currency.

A currency swap is an agreement between two parties to exchange their periodic interest-rate payments based on a set amount of money, for a set amount of time, but in different currencies.

A financing rate or overnight rate is charged when you hold a leveraged position for more than a day, as for example in a forex trade. A leveraged position means you borrow money from the broker to trade. For this borrowed money, you have to pay interest (or in certain cases, can also receive interest). This is the financing rate.

The margin is a portion of your funds that your forex broker sets aside from your account balance to keep your trade open and to ensure that you can cover the potential loss of the trade. Buying on margin is the act of borrowing money to buy securities. The practice includes buying an asset where the buyer pays only a percentage of the asset’s value and borrows the rest from the bank or broker. The broker acts as a lender and the securities in the investor’s account act as collateral.

A margin call is when your broker notifies you that your margin level has fallen below the required minimum. Brokers use a margin level to determine whether a forex trader can take a new position or not. A margin level of 0% means that the account currently has no open positions, and a margin level of 100% means that account equity is equal to the used margin.
