    For the futures side, there would not be any insurance. IB however sweeps excess funds at day end to the securities account in order for all excess funds to fall under the additional protection of SIPC and insurance.

    nope, but I think the TWS or the myriad of front ends available along with the access to so many global markets more than hold their own against it.

    Thanks for the offer def, but I only need access to e-minis. Also with X_T ver 7 with chart based trading will make it difficult to switch to another soft.

    Now if you were to offer X_T to your clients, I would have thought you would induce potentially quite a few new ones to make a switch over to you.

    EDIT: I almost opened an account with you, but when started researching the platforms on offer, TWS just didn't cut it for me.
