  4. No, they need separate accounts and separate funds
     
  5. Will ask about thinkorswim. Still waiting for tasty to enable futures trading.
     
  6. Try "OptionsXpress" I know they do for sure.
     
  7. Interactive Brokers has it all under one account.

    I want to point out that although it is a convenience to be able to apply once and get one account number, ALL futures are traded and custody is a futures segregated account, not in your securities account. Margin in the futures account and the equity account have to be met. Firms like Lightspeed offer both securities and futures accounts through the same clearing firm, but the have to be applied for and funded independently. You will also get different statements. Wedbush Futures sends a nightly email and offers portal access and Lightspeed offers our portal access for equities/options. Same support staff and the same dedicated sales person.

    We can offer Realtick EMS to access both Equities,options and futures.
