What Are Your Total Commissions? Understanding Total Futures Trading Commissions (breakdown)

One of the most common questions potential clients ask is, “What are your commissions?” While it’s essential to consider commissions when choosing a broker, it’s equally important to understand the total costs involved in futures trading. Commissions are just one piece of the puzzle. For most liquid contracts on the CME, exchange fees will likely make up the majority of your trading costs. It’s crucial to familiarize yourself with these fees, as well as any additional charges such as processing fees, connectivity fees, and platform fees.

To make an informed decision, request a breakdown of each cost component from the brokers you’re considering. This will allow you to accurately compare commissions and other expenses, especially if you’re evaluating brokers offering the same trading platform, such as TradingView.

Keep in mind that while lower commissions may seem attractive, they don’t always translate to lower overall costs. Focus on the total cost structure to ensure you’re getting the best value for your trading strategy. By understanding the various fees involved and comparing the total costs across brokers, you’ll be better equipped to make a decision that aligns with your trading goals.
