Icon for Why does a fast order path matter for futures - Futures Trading page

Why does a fast order path matter for futures?

Futures reward a fast, predictable order path more than most instruments, which is why the rewritten matching layer matters here. Charting, alerts and copy trading work the same way they do on every other market in the app.

What does your broker set, and what does TM9 handle?

Contract availability and margin requirements are set by your broker. TM9 handles the screen side: fast order placement, charts with over a hundred studies, and alerts on price or volatility while you are away from the desk.

Icon for What draws futures traders to TM9 - Futures Trading page

What draws futures traders to TM9?

Futures traders come for the execution path and stay for the charting. If you trade contracts around a session open, the combination of fast acknowledgement and a chart you can trade from directly is the practical benefit.

Where This Fits.

Futures are one of several markets TM9 carries side by side. For the app you place these contracts in, see the TM9 home page.

Icon for What TM9 covers - Futures Trading page

What TM9 covers

Futures sit within a wider multi-asset line-up across multiple brokers: forex pairs, stocks, global indices such as SPX, NDX, DAX and NIFTY, commodities like gold, silver and oil, and a curated list of CFDs, with new instruments added every quarter. Your futures orders go straight to the broker you connect, and their offering decides which contracts you can reach.

Icon for Futures beside your forex and stocks - Futures Trading page

Futures beside your forex and stocks

A futures contract lives in the same account, watchlist and charting canvas as your forex pairs and stocks, so there is no second app to switch to. The tooling is shared as well: sub-second quotes, over a hundred studies, price and volatility alerts, copy trading and multi-device sync. Contract availability, spreads, leverage and execution policy are set by the broker you connect.

Icon for Good to know - Futures Trading page

Good to know

The broker account you connect decides which futures contracts you can trade, and its spreads, swaps, leverage and margin requirements apply to every position you open. Trading futures carries a real risk of loss. TM9 supplies the charts, alerts and order routing; the broker holds your funds and executes the orders the app sends.
