Monthly Minimum Examples:

Scenario 1:

Rithmic Per Trade Fee on Optimus Flow is $0.10 per contract traded.

If you trade less than 250 contracts / 125 round turns per month, you will be charged the difference up to $25. For example, if you trade 300 contracts on Optimus Flow using Rithmic, your monthly Rithmic fees will be as follows:

Trade Routing / Execution Fee = $30 (300 trades x .10 /trade rate)

Software License Fee = $0 since you already covered the $25 monthly minimum on your execution fees.

Total Monthly Charges: $30

Scenario 2:

Rithmic Per Trade Fee on all trading platforms EXCEPT Optimus FLOW is $0.25 per contract traded.

If you trade less than 100 contracts / 50 round turns per month, you will be charged the difference up to $25.

For example, if you trade 80 contracts on Sierra Chart using the Rithmic feed, your monthly Rithmic fees will be as follows:

Trade Routing / Execution Fee = $20 (80 trades x .25 /trade rate)

Software License Fee = $5 ($25 Monthly Minimum (-) $20 Execution Fee)

Total Monthly Charges: $25 (Execution (+) License Fees)

Concurrent Logins Explained:

Please note that if you need concurrent access to multiple platforms at the same time, you can do so for no extra charge using the R Trader Pro Market data plugin.

For more information on how to enable this feature, please click here: Rithmic Market Data Billing Update and how to Avoid Professional Fees with Concurrent Logins.

For users that would like to concurrently login to multiple platforms at the same time and not use R Trader Pro’s Plugin feature, this can be enabled upon request. Doing so will incur two sets of Rithmic User Id fees per month, as outlined above. As mentioned, any user enabled for MORE THAN 2 max session count for market data will be charged as a professional accordingly.
