I can definitely recommend tradier. I'm quite happy with my IB account as well which I mainly use for long stock positions. It's hard to beat tradier with their 10$ per month flat fee package when it comes to commissions. It's impossible to beat IB in terms of availability of tradable products and stability of the trading platform.

Lynx is just a company trying to market IB in Europe. You would be far better of doing business directly with IB. But apparantly Lynx has leverage on you. I would run away as fast as possible. having said that: opening an account with TOS is easy for Europeans. Just look it up on TD Ameritrade’s site. If you fund it enough and have sufficient trade volume you can bargain a rate of 0.65 per contract. That’s what I do. BTW full disclosure: I am with IB as well. european brokers are just too expensive.

I hasd that same issue when I was with Lynx, then went with Tastyworks and later added Tradier. To the best of my knowledge there are no real low cost brokers in Europe that offer good options abilities.
