: Veerrry interesting.  Wonder what kind of fills you'll get in equities?  I
: assume futures execution will go direct to Globex so there will be no
games
: there, but what about stocks?  I don't trade stocks but I know there are
: lots of ways for the broker to make a buck even without commissions.  Any
: ideas how good TS Pro executions are?
:
: For futures it says you have access to "electronic futures markets" -- but
: the fine print says "it means the routing through servers to an electronic
: system that transmits the order directly to the **floor** of the
exchange."
:  Don't they route directly to Globex??
:
: Anybody know what their futures commission rates are?
:
: I had to dig pretty deep to find it, but the minimum account size is $50k
: to trade equities, $20k for futures.  Still, that's not a bad deal.  Might
: be worth a look-see.
