    obviously the 106r corp account cuts your commissions on the es or ym in 1/2. my question is when trading in a corp account like an llc you lose the 60/40 tax treatment correct? also do you have to pay fica? if this is the case you'd have to trade 5000 contracts or more a month to make up for the fica taxes and lack of 60/40 treatment
