Hi MarcOh, the CME's unique requirement of having a Futures Trading Account in order to qualify for discounted Non-Professional Real-time Data Exchange Fees is not new. See the CME's language below, I think you will agree its quite clear. For many years AMP has been opening up small Futures Trading Accounts and now is opening even smaller Accounts for Micro Futures trading, even Stage 5 and Edge Clear are also willing to open small Futures Trading Accounts at least partially to help traders qualify as Non-Professionals for CME Group Market Data. If you wish we can speak about this tomorrow and help further? ----- The CME Group expects you to have a Futures Trading Account in order to qualify as a Non-Professional [*Note: we know of only the CME having this rule, not EUREX, not CFE, not NASDAQ, not NYSE, just CME*] From the CME Certification: "The Non-Professional Subscriber must: a. have an active and funded futures trading account; b. be an individual, natural person or small business entity" The solution if you do not have a Futures Trading Account (but would otherwise qualify as a Non-Professional) is described here: Easy Solution to CME Funded Trading Account Requirement |
