| Pricing | Commissions as low as $0.15 per side + fees (top volume tier) · free tier: None; promotional '20 Commission-Free Trades' offer, with customers still responsible for exchange, clearing, NFA, data, platform and technology fees | Not published (monthly licence fee not verified); monthly plan commissions $0.99 standard/E-mini and $0.29 micro per side · free tier: Free platform use for advanced charting and unlimited simulated trading; brokerage commissions on the free plan are $1.29 per side standard/E-mini and $0.39 per side micro |
| Pricing model | Usage-based (per-side commission, volume-tiered) | Subscription / One-time licence tied to per-contract commissions |
| Best for | Moderate-to-high volume futures day traders who already know which charting/execution platform they want, value a CME clearing member and low per-side cost, and are comfortable calculating exchange, data and platform fees themselves. | Self-directed, technically confident futures traders doing meaningful monthly contract volume in micros and E-minis who want a DOM-centric desktop platform and will recoup a licence fee through reduced per-side commissions. |
| Avoid if | You want one all-in price on one bundled platform, need equities/ETFs/equity options alongside futures, trade infrequently, or rely on leveraged intraday size through FOMC and major data releases. | You are a beginner or occasional trader, want a single account spanning equities, options and futures, or prefer a primarily mobile or browser-based workflow. |

A higher TOP SCORE means more of the evidence favours that platform on this methodology — it is not a recommendation, and it does not account for your specific requirements. Advertisers are never declared the winner of a comparison.
