Hello Brett,

I am curious which brokerage or commodity trader you use and what your commissions are like. I am currently using Interactive Brokers which lets me trade most contracts except they still don't have options on NYBOT and NYMEX/COMEX futures. But, their commisions are pretty good.

thanks

Hi Anil,

I use Farr Financial for this account (www.gofutures.com). I just started using IBKR to trade with my IRA also. With Farr, I'm paying $9 commission on trades. I believe they do have options on those futures (I'm in the account now), but you'd need to double check - I haven't actually placed an option order through this account.
