  1. Yep, great bunch of people and very stable platform. The account min of $25K places them out of reach for many Futures traders (of course you can also trade stocks, FX, Bonds, Options, etc), but I gather that is not the market they are looking for. The flexible clearing is an added bonus (GS, ML, Southwest), depending on the clearing you can have a similar setup to IB where unused futures funds have SIPC protection.

    Better yet, just give them a yell/email/whatever, and they'll explain it all to you.

  3. They are great if you want to do all your option/future/stock/forex and bond trading through one platform. If you dont care about that, there are better software packages out there.

    I've seen them at Online Trading Expos, their niche is the multi-asset class system and they do it well.
