any one have any experience trading with discounttrading.com . Looking for a discount broker that has there own platform so i can trade form phone or any computer . there platform called firetip . any other broker suggestion welcomed . thnaks
No experience with discounttrading.com.
A broker with a commission discount scheme is Tradovate, https://www.tradovate.com:443/ . They have a mobile app platform as well as a desktop version.
You do not win as a trader, you just get to play again the next day. If that game doesn’t appeal to you then you should not trade. Gary Norden
I've been thinking about trying out this broker. Not much third party comment out there. There's a review with some details at : https://www.advisoryhq.com/articles/discount-trading-review/
but the writing seems standoffish and uniform like much of the site, so I wonder if it's just another shill for pay blog review site.
yes i been there about 6 months and no problems . only withdrew money twice and got it no problem . They do seem small
. You can email a lady called megan . Response with in the day . Low cost on trade .You get a free platform to trade with a ladder but no charts . I use my own charting and get feed from iqfeed . SO far no issue . what i like is they give you day time margins after hrs .as long as you are flat at 5-6 pm . think they are good for day trading . i was at thinkorswim where $5 +fees round trip . These guy $1 . but you have to pay extra for charting .
I got started with discount trading. The fees I got for one contract NQ roundtrip:
Exchange USD 2.36 DR NFA USD 0.04 DR
Brokerage USD 0.50 DR
Commission USD 1.98 DR
It also costs $3/month for instruments bundle without lvl 2. And $10/month for using CQG with NT7 (must be lifetime license older then July, 2014) which is all good with me. Yes, Meagan was very helpful, thanks. I did some trading already (on NT7) and everything works great. Happy with dt so far.
As far as the free platform with a ladder, is the ladder only available if you are already in a trade? As I think thats how the firetip demo work not sure if the real thing is the same
