The fees are on their webpage. Just a quick Google away.

“regular order”, I’m assuming you mean market orders.

Pros: none, regardless of broker.  
Cons: just don’t, regardless of broker.

10k orders as you mention, or even less, truly, should only be limit orders. Execution should then be identical at every broker, only the fee structure differs.

I think we might be missing that 212 only offers DMA here, whereas I would think given the scale of IB they could utilise multiple brokers for illiquid stocks, or large trades to get a better deal?

Yes but do IBKR have restrictions on size of orders or limits?

Yes think you misunderstood there i didnt mean what type as is market or limit, i meant the fees charged for something like 10k orders. Also if there are any limits.

Fees are on the website. Depends what you’re buying. Here is the breakdown for IBKR UK [https://www.interactivebrokers.co.uk/en/pricing/commissions-home.php](https://www.interactivebrokers.co.uk/en/pricing/commissions-home.php)

I am not aware of any limit in order size.
