New commission rates at Velocity Futures

Discussion in 'Retail Brokers' started by Dale Box, Sep 23, 2009.

  1. When I went to commissions (such as under Crude, Fullsized), and clicked on the tabs BESIDES Xtrader Subscription, I kept getting "Error on Page" on an older IE browser...

    BPtrader,
    You’re most welcome for posting the rates.

    1. I have no experience with IB so I honesty couldn’t say we’re faster or more reliable. They’re obviously a great firm, with a great platform. If you’d like to do any speed tests we most certainly could. In regards to reliability, we’re very reliable and constantly improve our technology.

    2. I’ve often wondered the same. Being one of Futures Magazines Top 50 Brokers for 2008 we definitely have a customer base. I sincerely apologize for TraderZones bad experience. I’d like to investigate his claims but without knowing who he is I’m unable to do so.

    3. Platform costs depend on your platform selection. Which one are you interested in?

    Best regards,

    TraderZones,

    I just tried with IE 7 & 8 without an issue.

    Which version are you running?

    Best regards,

    My apologies AMT4SWA...

    We're still working with TradeVec to finalize everything. For now please use the Ninja Trader commission schedule.

    Best regards,

  8. Just this second I got off the phone with "Sales" at Velocity.
    "Salesman" never ID'd himself. His tone was disinterested to say the least.
    I was told comish for 1 or more trades a day would be $4.50 RT for the ES and NQ.
    I'm only paying $3.60 RT all in right now, so why would I want to go with Velocity?

    IanMacQuaide,

    You spoke to me.

    As you can see we have commissions lower than $4.50 per RT. Based on your mentioned volume I recommended you to use free X_TRADER.

    What platform do you use now?

    Do you pay a platform fee?
