yeah but that for 375 r/t's a month. if you do 200 it comes out to $4.50 or more as they still charge you the $400 no matter what
I noticed a little freeze on prices, but my buddy on X Trader had the same problem. I believe it was a volume bursting exchange issue, not specific to any broker.
If you open an account thru introducing brokers, like infinity or others, you will not have to pay the $400 platform fee No volume is required. ..but of course you pay more for R/T ($4.32)
I like Trans Act a lot. I have been using it for a while now and have no complaints. They are very quick to answer the phone and their platform is very fast and reliable. Try IB's customer service and you will know what I am talking about.
Has anyone tried the Zaner Group? Their commissions are low and they use Trans Act too. I pay $1.50 R/T in commissions. You add $2.32 and $1.86 for exchange fess R/T for ES or YM to that. And more volume means they can go even lower.
