  Yes, it is possible to avoid currency conversion fees when trading cryptocurrencies on interactive brokers. One way to do this is by using a stablecoin like Tether (USDT) or USD Coin (USDC) to trade instead of converting your funds to fiat currencies. By using stablecoins, you can trade directly between different cryptocurrencies without the need for currency conversion.

  Unfortunately, interactive brokers currently do not offer a direct way to avoid currency conversion fees when trading cryptocurrencies. However, you can minimize these fees by using a third-party exchange that offers lower conversion rates. By transferring your funds to the exchange and trading there, you can take advantage of their competitive rates and avoid excessive fees.
