What are the differences between both?

1. http://www.mfglobal.com (MF Global)


2. http://www.mfglobalfutures.com (MF Global Future)

Are they the same company?

If you need to open an account to trade ES/NQ, which web-site to go to to open an future account?

Yes, they are the same company. MF Global Futures is for private clients as it says on the website under the company name.

My guess is that even if you go to the MF Global website, it will eventually direct you to the other one.
