You might look into Omegas online trading platform. $99 bucks a month if you use their brokering services, $199 a month if you do your trades with someone else. I heard they lowered their rates,so it might be worth checking into. Also, if you execute your trades thru them I think they wave the...

Hi stevet...:D ...Just curious, IBs round turn is $4.80 for an emini S&P. What's the "professional rate" ?

Correct...I've seen individual stock brokers get fined more than that for a simple screw-up.
