I've looked at a lot of brokers and the choice is overwhelming. Interactive Brokers UK didn't stand out, except for using branding that gives deceiving impressions on who it's regulated by. A more common example is falsely posturing to be regulated by Swiss. I'm not sure why present yourself as a UK brokerage, when in fact you're US regulated.

Anyway, why do you hold IB to be best consumer-oriented broker available anywhere?

Edit: Actually I was looking at forex brokers, stocks is probably different in that a lot of people want access to the US market.

IB is the largest retail broker with access to most global exchanges. I'm not sure there are any competitors in the same league so it's hard to compare.
