Note:  Unlike some other firms, we will NEVER "play games" with you such as advertising a low commission rate but then charging you higher "customary" NFA and exchange fees in order to hide your real commission rate, or hit you with hidden "platform subscription" fees, or account inactivity fees.  We tell you everything upfront.

Warning:  It is a fact -- Most people who try to "go it totally alone" with their futures trading will lose money in the end.  Therefore, we highly recommend trying either our broker-assisted or "Full-Service Trading" service where you work in partnership with a broker who is experienced in futures trading.  This is especially true if you are relatively new to commodity futures and forex trading.

Think about it:  Yes, the commissions you pay are higher to partner with a broker, but during one year of trading, if the broker's experience can help prevent you from making even 1 bad trade or costly mistake during those 12-months, then it would actually save you more money than whatever savings in commissions you'd get from a completely self-directed trading account.  As the saying goes, "two heads are better than one." -- It helps to have another set of eyes and a broker's YEARS of trading experience on your side.

However, if you are already an experienced trader who has been profitable "going it alone" in your trading, then you will be interested in our low commission rates for self-directed traders.  (Contact us with your average volume of monthly trades to receive your rate quote for "go it totally alone" self-directed online traders.  Please include the commodity futures that you normally trade, the number of years that you have traded each, and your average R/T's per month for each product.)
