Types of Trading Accounts
This level of service is for the new trader with either no experience or very little experience trading futures.
We will assist and educate on a continuous basis including instruction on order placement, delivery dates, option strike prices and numerous other services.
We will never offer you our opinion unless you specifically ask us. In other words, if you know exactly what you wish to trade, the only input we will offer is if you are attempting something that might be detrimental. For example, if you attempt to place an order in a market that is either in delivery or is close to delivery, we will point it out to you and perhaps recommend the next most liquid month. Or let's say you are placing an option order that expires in three weeks, we might bring it to your attention and recommend another strike price.
Take advantage of our close to twenty years of experience we are offering. When you feel confident to begin trading on your own, we will assist you there as well by getting you set up online with a lower commission rate.
