IBKR Margin Fee

Hi I have been using IBKR to sell CSP and CC for quite some time now using Cash Account, and basically I wanted to dabble in Margin Account solely to sell put. What I am trying to confirm is that assuming I have little cash left and say I sold a AAPL $100 PUT using margin account I won't be charged any margin interests, and I will only be charged interest if it got exercised where I have to "borrow" $10K from IBKR to fulfill it.

Is my assumptions correct?

Yep, you will not be charged margin interest for the duration of the put, unless of ofcourse the put is assigned

You will be charged margin interest throughout the puts and you also need to have enough assets to cover your naked put (i think it was 25% of the price if your put got assigned)

Tiger brokers, is there any activity fee or holding fee (margin or no margin)? Have anyone tried withdrawal as well? Would you recommend this platform?

If i would like to invest in s&p500, do you advise to buy relevant ETF via ibkr, or use cash to buy from endowus? (wondering if IBKR incurs any recurring fees for holding the ETF VS fees from endowus)

How should I invest using IBKR if I want to minimize fees especially the monthly activity fee?

IBKR news update? I heard they are removing the monthly activity fees and waiving trading fees for some ETFs?

Now that ibkr has removed the inactivity fee, would it make more sense to buy fractional shares from ibkr instead of using fsmone rsp? Thoughts pls!!
