How to find a good broker ?

Hi,

I'm french and I devellop software on the options trading (15months). Now I have 30.000$ and I want make money with the options trading.

The bug is the ticket to the trade (ticket + Xcontract). Only InteractiveBroker and MBTrading ask not the ticket.

You know another broker to trade the options and the stock without the ticket?

I contacted "Genesis Securities", they are very speed to reply, but they can't trade the options (for the moment).

What is the best ... to make the money and learn with a good broker ?

Thanks
 
the rate of IB isn't very good.
A lot of trader have problems.
Maybe the traders aren't good.
I don't know if IB is the best broker to begin with options and stocks.
 
IB is really great for options with really great rates, you will have a hard time finding better rates with only 30.000 USD.
I know what I'm talking about there have been years when I have traded over 50000 options through them.

1. Play trader contest without entry charge -as example
www.capital.fr or www.marketzar.com

If you can not win ,forget your intent .If you win risk only with
price money .

2. Optionsbroker ,which are pure agent of principals

AMTD,OXPS and SWIM .Price by direct routing

AMTD 10$ +0.75$ per contract
OXPS 1.25-1.5$ per contract ,minimu 10
TOS customized offer 1.5 $ per contract ,no ticket ,no minimum (ask Scott Sheridan)
IBKR is not pure agent ,is market maker through TMWD
and price by direct routing is 1.75$


Author have had conflict with SWIM TOS owner ...

www.ameritrade.com www.optionsxpress.com
www.thinkorswim.com

OXPS and SWIM offer real time paper money trading
simulator .Test your strategy with paper money some 1-2 years

You chance to win in options market through years ,not better
as 5% (95% of retail operators would loose)
If your questions in this thread not the joke ,you are weaker as dilletant .

3. TRy to test or to trade only high volume options with low
spread -as example 0.99-1 or 2.51-2.54

There are IWM,QQQQ,FCX,NYX,RIMM,CAT,INTC ,CSCO,AMGN
& (you can search low spread programm by www.cboe.com)

Your respectfully ....
 
Look at OptionsHouse
http://optionhouse.com/home/jsp/index.jsp

Their fee structure, which is flat rate, period, is terrific (for retail) if you trade any kind of size (ie 10+ options contracts, 500+ shares.)

Another to look at is RML trading
http://rmltrading.com/

They do have an (options) ticket charge, but the fee structure is 100% negotiable! If you actively trade, but with flucuating trade size, RML is one of the few (retail) out there that will aggressively compete for option and stock business with negotiated commissions and fees.

Good trading

You remain the MOST ANNOYING poster on ET!

I WASN'T TALKING TO YOU!
I GAVE THE OP ALTERNATIVES. YOU BRING NOTHING TO THE TOPIC!

GO TO LAW SCHOOL SO YOU CAN FIGHT YOUR OWN (TRADING CONTEST) LEGAL BATTLES. YOU MIGHT EVEN LEARN HOW TO WRITE COHERENT SENTENCES!
