Many traders, both beginner and experienced alike, prefer the full-service account. Your individual broker can act as a second set of eyes for you, relieving the need to constantly monitor the market. When desired, your broker can also help you to fine tune your trading strategies.

- Efficient Order Execution and Timely Fill Reporting
- "Flash Fills in most markets"

This account plan is for customers who make their own trading decisions and understand the process of placing their own trades either by telephone or via electronic platform. Discount customers monitor their own accounts and should have a clear understanding of risk and margin requirements. Our highly experienced, professional order desk staff can help call-in customers place orders. Fills are called back as soon as they are received.
Discount accounts receive the following services:
- "Flash Fills" in most markets
- Contingency orders (most discount services do not accept these)
- Price Alerts
- Electronic transmission of daily and monthly statements
An E-Trading Account will provide up-to-the-minute accounting of your positions and balance of your account. Fills to electronic exchanges such as Globex are received in seconds!
