simple cqq desktop has the option chain. execution fees, of course, being a retail, one can't avoid it, no monthly fee though.
They are ISV’s like CQG and Rithmic. Independent software vendors for futures and FOP. There are lists of brokers offering the software on their websites.
So execution fees is 0.10$ per contract that is fixed or it depends on broker? I found I like Quant tower - and wondering what is the best option for data connection/execution?
Ha! I was not aware of that. What about ICE Options (another good tool, albeit not free IIRC), is that for "privileged clients only" too?
Try our platform, has all that you need for options/ futures. All in one. https://www.e-futures.com/futures-trading-demo.php
With us we would need to talk about the type of trading, risk controls, account size, strategy and more before we approve CME direct.
Give me more details - do you have all all strike price trading on MES or MNQ options on futures? No platform fees monthly? Also what is all in one fees per side for FOP MES and MNQ?
So broker decides about CME direct - I see I thought you have to contact directly to CME is there any fees for CME direct? Is there any fees for your in house platform?
yes you need a broker "behind the client" in order to set up on the CME direct. Data fees apply and To my knowledge, CME does not charge a monthly fee for their system Our platform is FREE and you just need to pay for data which is $12.50 per exchange for level 2 and $2.50 per exchange for level 1 ( which most option traders select)
