How IB commission is calculated for PRO and VIP accounts?

Clients with a PRO or VIP account type will only incur a trade commission, with no spread markup. If a client with a PRO account opens a 1 lot trade on the EURUSDxx forex instrument, they will incur a trade commission of 5 USD (independent of the quote currency). IB will earn 50% of this amount, or 2.50 USD. VIP is calculated the same way, just instead of Trade commission 5 USD, VIP account are charged 4 USD per round lot for Forex instruments, so IB commission will be 50% from 4 USD which is 2 USD.
