It isn't complicated what happened here. The managers of CTG took shortcuts with traders who did not want to be licensed. They got caught. WTS ended their relationship with them (by U5'ing them) and took over the trading floor. End of story. This has nothing to do where WTS clears. Why would it?
You said "The managers of CTG took shortcuts with traders who did not want to be licensed. They got caught" Could you please elaborate? Do you know the managers name?
Do you know if they are honoring the payout splits of currrent CTG traders ? CTG traders were getting a better deal here.
Since they moved clearing to ETC, how is the short list? I know Wedbush has a pretty good short list ...
outside of the US it is a different company structure best to contact them directly at info@wtstrading.com
