What are
Futures & Options Commissions?
Futures & Options Commissions?
When you buy and sell futures and options contracts, commission is paid to your broker for connecting you to the Exchange. This allows you to place trades and the broker will provide a daily trading statement. For this service the broker will charge you a commission.
What does
‘all-in’ pricing mean?
‘all-in’ pricing mean?
In short, all-in pricing is all of the fees that come with a trade, giving you the overall cost of executing a single trade! So, lets look at a small breakdown to see what is included with the ‘all-in’ pricing:
Exchange Fees: Also known as pass-through fees, these are assigned by a futures exchange in return for passing through your trades.
National Futures Association Fees: Brokers are required to pay a fee to the NFA, and so this will be added onto the cost of the trade. It’s normally around $0.02 per side.
Clearing Fees: When you place a trade, there is always a clearing agent that settles trading accounts, clears the trade, reports data, maintains margins and more. Because of this responsibility, all traders must pay a clearing fee.
Order Routing Fees: Each time that you place an order through the CQG platform, the platform provider will assign a fee/lot for using the service to execute your trade. If you're a Tickmill client, then we cover this cost for you!
Commissions: This is what we charge our clients for the service we provide to connect them to the market, Support services and daily client statements.

Futures & Options Margin
BROKER
FUTURES CONTRACT
EXCHANGE
When you begin to trade futures or options, you have to become familiar with the concept of margin. Quite simply, it’s a ‘down-payment’ needed to be able to buy or sell a futures or options contract.
The margin is set by the exchange and is based on the market volatility. So, if there is a high level of market volatility, there will be an increased margin requirement. This is because the margin is used to minimise the ‘counterparty’ risk and ensure that clearing members can meet their obligations to their customers.
