CSC aims to be at the leading edge of trading technology providing the investor with the tools needed to make intelligent trading decisions and efficiently execute those transactions.

How do I open an account?

Simply download the application from this website. Or we can send you an application by mail. Complete the application. Sign it, and send it back to Capital Standard Corporation. After we receive the application and the initial deposit made out you will be up and trading.

What markets can I trade?

You can trade all futures, FX and CFD markets as long as margin requirements are met.

What are your margin requirements?

Each futures exchange sets margin requirements and they will change periodically to reflect the changing volatility of the different markets. Our margins will always equal those set by our clearing corporation.

How can I enter trades?

If you want to enter orders without assistance from a broker you can enter the orders online with our easy to follow order entry system. You can also use a broker to assist you in trading.

How much will I pay in commissions?

Your commission will vary depending on the type of service you require, the size of the account, and the experience of the trader. Commission costs can be deeply discounted if you require no assistance from a broker. However we also provide full service brokerage programs at competitive rates.
