I opened a TradeStation account to see how I like Jeff Augen's Phase Trader Indicators, which are a bit pricey, but look quite interesting.
I opened the account with a $2000 deposit and my commissions were set at $1.50 plus fees.
Fortunately I remembered that TradeStation had an offer for military, veterans and first responders. It's called TradeStation Salutes:
The commissions are $0.45 plus fees. What a difference!
If you quality, the commissions are incredible.
I put a trade on the Micro ES futures contract to see how the order process goes. When the trade hits one of my bracket order prices, I'll be able to see the exact costs, which I'll post here if anyone is interested.
