Is this a good rate/payout schedule?

Quote from PTG110:

Correction

This plan is 1.00 per 1000 shares as compared to the other plans which are .20 cents per 1000 shares.

Payout: 99/1
Rate: 1.00 per 1000 shares
Minimum volume req: 5 million
Minimum gross req: $26,000
(min vol and gross combined)

my mistake

Big difference, now it's 5times more expensive then what I thought. Deal not so great anymore.
 
I trade around 8-10M a month, but I'm wondering about the "gross req" situation, does that mean Net PNL monthly or just "gross profit without ecn's and fees" ?
 
Gross amount before any costs.

I personally average about 3-6 million shares per month, with a gross of 8 - 15k. I would obviously fall into the 90/10 deal. That being said I would be saving myself about $10,000 - $15,000 a month just in commission costs. This seems like a great deal am i wrong?

Payout: 50/50
Rate: .20 cents per 1000 shares
Minimum volume req: 500,000
Minimum gross req: $2,600
(min vol and gross combined)

Payout: 75/25
.20 cents per 1000 shares
Minimum volume req: 2 million
Minimum gross req: $5,200
(min vol and gross combined)

Payout: 90/10
Rate .20 cents per 1000 shares
Minimum volume req: 3 million
Minimum gross req: $11,000
(min vol and gross combined)

Payout: 99/1
Rate: 1.00 per 1000 shares
Minimum volume req: 5 million
Minimum gross req: $26,000
(min vol and gross combined)
 
But wait if you do 5 million shares but only make $8k then you didn't meet the $11k minimum so you would only get the 75% payout not the 90%?

Does this mean if you only do 400k shares but make $100k you only get a 50% payout?

If that was the case, on the last day of the month you flip 4.6 million shares of SIRI or CHTR. You would lose a few thousand in slippage and commissions, but you would make 49% more on your $100k P&L.

Exactly. And that makes the structure seem pretty weird to me.
 
I believe this is what Keystone was offering to traders or groups. I went to their seminar seemed like the same exact structure, just wasn't impressed with their high cost training fees.
