We took some customers from discretion to API Trading to leased seats on the CME while placing them with highly capitalized FCMs.

Says right on the chart CFD

It depends on how your trading account is margined for the day as well. You can ask for reduced margins for day positions so it would not affect your trading. What you carry overnight will be the CME margins for outright and spreads.

What you saying is that the CME would put itself in a position where they discriminate between FCMS and charge certain FCM customers for data fees and others get away with quotes of an unfunded account? I work with quite a few FCMs and no unfunded account gets real-time data. This includes...

Yes, brokers could add extra commissions and cover costs, but the issue is that non funded accounts are provided with no data costs? AFAIU/K if you are distributing just data you need to be registered as data providers like DTN, Esignal, etc. and then you charge your customer a fee per exchange...

My conclusion is different. Let's leave it at that.

I believe you. But.... There are no workaround CME rules. They enforce them on the FCM and data feed level. Each customer is entitled to 30 days of real-time demo data annually (source: data and execution vendors). There are very few brokers who do not charge CME data for funded accounts...

For my understanding, CME rules say that if someone has display quotes they can 11 minutes delayed. No one can display publically real-time quotes. Non funded accounts in brokerages (CME rule) can not get real-time quotes.

@themickey Thank you for your perspective. Coming from the Futures world, my customers trade at most 5 instruments (from what I observed) and some single one that they focus on. When you trade 1000 stocks that you monitor daily, I agree that different risk management may be necessary.

In my opinion, for the majority of traders, it is best to place a simple price target based on price action/charts, etc. However, traders always focus on that one insignificant (statistically) trade was a home run, and they took only 5-10% of the move or less. Or, they enjoyed the significant...
