Yes, futuresbroker.com is a legitimate futures broker. It is run by and a twin of Velocity Futures. As long as the funds are being wired to "Clear Chicago Group" it is legitimate. They appear to have an express procedure to open an account: "We can have your account open 30 minutes...

As long as you install all the device drivers with the operating system any operating system will work properly on your laptop. Windows XP will work. Linux will work.

Quite obviously "very well known" FCM makes too much money and doesn't need your business. Have you talked to Advantage Futures? They are a clearing firm that caters to high volume traders and they have some of the lowest rates available for volume.

They are looking for fools and suckers who will pay them lots of commissions in the short term before they go broke. Responsible brokers looking for a long term customer relationship (and future commissions) don't offer absurd low margins.

I am not Don Miller. Please read my response to puretruth so I don't have to repeat it a third time.

I posted the same response in two threads becasue the same nonsense was posted in two threads. Here, once again, is a duplicate response. Countering nonsense is now a scam? Any one who bothers to read my posts here at ET and Don Miller's posts in his blog can clearly see two different...

Call the CME and ask. Call Pat Lafferty and ask. Call the NFA and CFTC and ask. What else would you like to know? :D

Where are you looking that you cannot find brokers with rates less than $2.40 a side ($4.80 RT) and no platform fee? Even IB is less than $2.40 a side. IB's unbundled commissions start at $4.70 RT and drop at specified volume breaks. futuresbroker.com charges $3.80 RT with a choice of 4...

This is absurd. Don Miller is a member of the IOM. If he was not actually an exchange member the CME legal department would have him prosecuted for the false claim. Don Miller had a profit of $1,635,103 for the year 2008. If he did not actually have the profit he claims he would be the...

He updates his blog most days. http://donmillerjournal.blogspot.com/ Don Miller doesn't know yet what he is going to do when the 8 weeks with the jellies is over. Wait and see.

Any regular reader of Don's blog knows that Don is always hardest on himself. Demanding more and better from himself is one of Don's continuous psychological improvement techniques.

Thanks for clearing that up. I thought that Don had a Jellie named Dumb Moron. :D :D :D

At the current price of 1015 an ES contract is worth $50,750. $500 margin gives you more than 100 to 1 leverage. Isn't that more than enough leverage for you? For the average (losing) trader $500 margins are the fast way to empty out their account while paying plenty of commissions.

Returning to Don Miller (the actual subject of this thread) he had a free one hour webinar on Wednesday evening. Was I the only one here to watch it? I thought that Don did a very good job of presenting his material and had useful information for those traders that are scalpers.

A futures exchange membership is a futures exchange membership, the type does not matter. Read tax code section 1402(i) "Special rules for options and commodities dealers" In particular: "(B) Commodities dealer The term “commodities dealer” means a person who is actively engaged...

futuresbroker.com (conjoined twin to Velocity) has SR starting at $3.80 RT (All-In).

I installed TWS 897.8 for Windows on one of my backup computers and it runs just fine for me. You can try installing TWS from scratch by uninstalling TWS and removing the C:\Jts folder.

IB's futures commissions are too high. Here is some cost perspective. IB's unbundled commissions start at $4.70 RT and drop at specified volume breaks. futuresbroker.com charges $3.80 RT with a choice of 4 free platforms (NinjaTrader, Strategy Runner, QST, or CQG Trader). Transact...
