How Market Data is Allocated
|
|
|
|
|
|
Professional versus Non-Professional
|
|
|
|
Most exchanges and data vendors classify customers as either non-professional or professional. By default, organizations such as corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships and any account where the data is used for more than personal investment purposes is deemed to be professional. In addition, private persons may be considered professional if they are registered as a security or investment advisor, or act in a similar capacity. A trader who is employed by a financial services business may also be considered a professional. Click here for more information about non-professional qualifications.
Clients choosing to subscribe to US non-professional real-time market data will have the USD 10 (or non-USD equivalent) monthly market data subscription fee waived if they spend USD 30 (or USD equivalent) or more in commission for the month.

Under certain circumstances, you may be charged additional fees (by our clearing firm or the exchanges). Place Trade passes these fees on to our clients without any additional markup. Please note that Place Trade does not receive any form of benefit or compensation on market data subscriptions and does not mark up any securities, take credits or rebates from spreads, receive soft dollar payments or any other hidden fees that allow some firms to charge what appear to be lower commissions or flat rate commissions. We are not nickel and diming you, we are being transparent and offering the lowest possible overall trading cost to our clients. If you think that our costs are high, please understand that we are actually showing you what you are paying for and are not making up the difference where you will be unlikely to notice it (like within a price spread instead of passing the lower price on to you).
