A full rebate of the $99 monthly software fee is available to active traders.


Exchange Fees
Exchange fees are passed through to you without markup. TrackTrade accounts are automatically enabled for NYSE, AMEX, Nasdaq Level I & II, which translates to $12 per month. You have the option to sign up for data feeds from numerous exchanges worldwide, which are charged on an a la carte basis.

Interim cash balances receive daily taxable interest or are swept into a choice of tax-free municipal money funds.

Account Protection--$25 Million
Track Data Securities Corp. provides SIPC coverage and additional coverage, bringing the total account protection to $25,000,000.

Customer accounts are covered up to $500,000 (including $100,000 for cash claims) by the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC), which protects securities customers of its members. An explanatory brochure is available upon request or at www.sipc.org.

In addition, customer accounts have supplemental protection of $24,500,000 (including $900,000 for cash claims), purchased through Lloyd's of London. Lloyd's, which has been in business since the 17th century, operates in 120 countries and is the second largest commercial in the world.

Notes: SIPC does not cover commodity contracts and options on futures. SIPC and supplemental coverage do not protect against market loss.
