Commissions
 
"I am a client for a long time now. I greatly appreciate the reliability of your service." - CC

Our commissions are transparent, competitive and below the industry norm. You might find brokers with lower commissions but you will not find a broker with a better price-quality-service equation.

* This fee is passed on to Patsystems. Patsystems is one of only two technology providers professional futures traders use. Why? Because they send out tick-by-tick quotes. Competitors only provide 1/2 second snapshot quotes which result in inferior order execution. This is an important difference. One single tick in your favour on the Eurostoxx50 future, for example, equals € 10 extra profit.

The futures exchanges supply their real-time quotes to traders at a reduced cost. Patsystems and WH SelfInvest provide these quotes to their clients free of charge. In order to be considered a trader by the exchanges a person is required to execute at least one order every three months. If a client does not meet this requirement the exchange will increase the cost of the real-time quotes to us. We will pass this cost, £ 75, on to the client who did not at least execute one order over the last three months. Details arrow
