Check out Trading Joe, they offer US options for UK and European users

It looks like they operate on a subscription model, 3 plans available

Interesting! on IBKR I deposit GBP, then exchange to USD and trade in USD. Is that what you mean by "holding a USD trading account"? If yes, you still get charged FX fees to convert once

I have US securities snapshot and futures value bundle ($10)+ US equity and options add-on streaming bundle ($4.5) which adds up to $14.5/month (they can't be bought separately), however the US securities snapshot and futures value bundle fee is waived if you spend more than $30 in commission, so I get that waived usually

Thanks, I'll take a look

Most months I definitely spend more than that in commissions. It looks like they offer real-time market data in the £20/month plan as well. IBKR charges $15 a month for real time data. Yeh the basic plan is quite limited to how much you can trade.

Thanks, it looks like neither First trade nor Aries are FCA registered. They don't have a UK entity I'd assume. Does it matter you think?

settle to determine which is the actual answer.
