I am looking to re-register my S7 before the 2-year period expires.
Any firms besides Bright?
Bright is all good besides the quoted commission.
 
Any CBOE firm can register your series 7 as a series 56 waiver. It costs a little more though. You can try WTS or Avatar or somewhere like that but you're going to need to open an account and trade there
 
I did a little research under WTS and narrowed it down to a choice of two. JC Trading and Integra Capital, which are sub-groups under WTS. Both are very good, professional and have competitive rates.

Remote trading via either has very good backup support.
 
based on what did you do your research and why do you say they are the best?
which one do you use? thanks

@blueraincap for me the biggest issue was of stability and reliability. WTS has been around for a while (a result of a merger, where both the previous companies were around for even longer). JC Trading (which is a sponsor here on ET) is one of the sub-groups of WTS.

In reading the reviews of JC, it reflected positively on the standards that WTS held their sub-groups to. I narrowed it down to both JC and Integra Capital. Both are very stable and reliable outfits with good customer support.

I could have gone with either as the difference was minimal and that leads to your choice being a subjective one. For me, I ended up with Integra Capital for a couple of reasons.

They are based in NYC, a 4 minute walk from Wall St. Should I decide that I want to pursue my career further, there is no better place to meet and greet in this profession, than in the Big Apple. You can trade from their office too should you make appropriate arrangements.

The manager of that group (Zack Nadel) is SUPER nice and very accommodating; JC Trading's manager is equally nice.

Commissions would depend on the volume you trade and your experience. However, they are probably the best you will find in the industry. Monthly fees for the platform, ECN access etc. come to around $225.

All in all, you could go either way and it would probably work out okay.

Wishing you the very best in your search,

Alpha.
