They advertise $0.99 cents commissions, but then they’ll add some inflatede “customary” fees too. So ask them what you’ll pay with ALL FEES INCLUDED, for say, natural gas or unleaded, and it’s almost $20 per contract round turn!

I use their web interface which is sufficient for me as I am a long term trader. Executions, service etc quite ok. They quote 99c for electronic contracts, but with extra bogus FEES, I have been charged 10$ all in one way for electronic platinum, $24.00 RT all in for electronic US dollar index futures and so on. Their trick is to give a low quote for the E-mini and charge very high for everything else you trade. Steer clear of these liars!!!

They give a commission quote of 99c for electronic markets and 4.99$ for pits and options. I have traded several contracts (Platinum, palladium, cattle, sugar, usd, cattle, rbob gas) all electronic but have been charged pit rates. Also they have numerous other charges that they add on. So the round trip comes to between 20 to 26 $. Other than that platform, service etc is ok.

Go Futures has been a positive experience for me. .99 per side and no extra fees and quick service for glitches that have occurred on my end. E-minis are all that I have traded to date. Accounting history for taxes has been easy to acquire online.
