I recently opened a demo account with http://www.openecry.com/ and was discussing commissions with Todd, see below attachment. I feel that he was giving me the run around, notice the time one the left. Nearly an hour went by, I finally had to go to work. Iâm wondering if any of you have accounts with them, and were you quoted high like that? How should I negotiate to get them lower. Or is that impossible with account minimum? As a day trader, and scalper it will be nearly impossible for me to trade with them at their current rates. Awaiting your reply.. trading_time......
Yup. Todd was not your friend, at all! FWIW, for small retail accounts I use the MB, IB, and Proactive, published futures rates for baselines and negotiations. Here's the links... http://www.mbtrading.com/ratesFutures.asp http://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/accounts/fees/commissionFutures-FOPs.php?ib_entity=llc http://proactivefutures.com/fees_comm/pit.htm And BTW, OEC is a good firm. I do have an active account there. Good luck
