AMP alternative ?

AMP ( USA )replied to an online enquiry and suggested Tradeview as a package. Their charts seem okay and work well on the Imac. Being awkward I had had a demo with CQG ( data provider?) some time ago and now it is difficult to get the platform on demo cos they only allow one demo. Not to worry, I have applied for an AMP account, albeit I am in the UK, and look forward to sorting it out and trying my hand at Futures ( micro's to start with) and leaving Spread betting behind. Just need to get past the demo ban and load on Imac with
AMP ( USA )as my broker. Looking forward to it and found this as an intro. to US Futures trading.It's a start :)
Okay -I posted the video with tongue in cheek but was struck by the fact that he was not ( seemingly) trying to hook the unwary, via spurious videos, to buy courses.

If you open and fund an account with AMP (current minimum deposit is $25 + money to cover the data fees) you have access to their platforms for both live and demo trading without time restrictions.
 
I applied for an account with AMP once a couple of years ago and got rejected without reason when asked for one, they said they didn't need to give one. That's my experience with them. I want to trade futures. Where else can I go?

You could try again with AMP. How much are you going to deposit?

If your (virtual) paper work is in order then it should only take 2 - 3 days. I opened an account 2 weeks ago, thats how long it took.

Sorry this is your impression...these few reported delays to account opening was not due to AMP. We process all application quickly once the verification documents are received from the applicant.

We obviously do not disclose in public our customers application process, but we can tell you that as soon as we received the required verification documents they were approved the same day.

If you ever need anything, just PM us...we are here to take care of all EliteTrader Members!
