If your linked margin brokerage account already has sufficient funds, there is no need to make additional transfers to separately fund futures trading. The minimum margin requirement for futures positions held overnight will be automatically transferred to your Wallstreet Euro futures account, including commission and fees, and any deficiency funds required to satisfy margin calls. Conversely, any excess margin and available cash will be automatically transferred back to your margin brokerage account where SIPC protection is available.

Wallstreet euro currently absorbs all CME Group and CFE quote fees for non-professional clients.  ICE U.S market data fees are passed through to clients.

If a futures position is held overnight, customers must margin their futures account with 100% of exchange minimum margin requirements. Futures account intraday margining for all products except Bitcoin is 50% of initial margin requirements. These requirements can be increased at any time.

Important note: Options transactions are intended for sophisticated investors and are complex, carry a high degree of risk, and are not suitable for all investors.

For more information, please read the Characteristics and Risks of Standardized Options prior to applying for an account. Also, there are specific risks associated with uncovered options writing that expose the investor to potentially significant loss. Please read the Special Statement for Uncovered Options Writers before you trade.

Trading on margin involves specific risks, including the possible loss of more money than you have deposited. A decline in the value of securities that are purchased on margin may require you to provide additional funds to your trading account. In addition, Wallstreet Euro Futures LLC can force the sale of any securities in your account without prior notice if your equity falls below required levels, and you are not entitled to an extension of time in the event of a margin call.

When trading on margin, an investor borrows a portion of the funds they use to buy stocks to try to take advantage of opportunities in the market. The investor pays interest on the funds borrowed until the loan is repaid.

For each trade made in a margin account, we use all available cash and sweep funds first and then charge the customer the current margin interest rate on the balance of the funds required to fill the order. The minimum equity requirement for a margin account is €2,000. Please read more information regarding the risks of trading on margin.
