Why are individual traders charged for professional data fees?
I trade on EUREX and CME. The fees charged by EUREX are non-professionals, while CME is a professional. I declared that I am a non-professional when opening an account. Did AMP change it privately?I only trade 1 fgbl contract, 2 MCL and 2 MGC. Is this enough to make me a professional? I think it is very ridiculous.

It's worth asking your broker why you're getting charged a professional fee. Could be a mistake, could be something you declared in your application pack.

Some brokers assign you as a professional if you trade through an LLC or corporation.
