From the President and Chief Executive Officer
It is our goal at TradeStation to be considered the only choice for committed traders. No matter what your current level of trading, we will meet you at that level and provide you with the award-winning analysis and trading tools, superb support and ongoing education to elevate your trading.
In designing and enhancing the TradeStation electronic trading platform, our objective was to surpass the passive information and execution tools provided by other trading platforms. Using our proprietary technology, EasyLanguage®, a cornerstone of TradeStation, we have created a powerful trading tool that can monitor multiple markets in real-time, spot opportunities others won’t see and send orders to the market with one-click speed. Clients can test, monitor and, if they wish, automate the execution of their trading strategies more quickly and effectively than ever before.
Now, the two unique advantages that have made the TradeStation platform an industry leader for over 10 years—the ability to historically test and automate custom trading strategies—are fully integrated with the unmatched speed of intelligent direct-access execution to all major ECNs, exchanges and electronic futures markets in one easy-to-use interface. Once unattainable for most traders, automated trading can now be a reality for any TradeStation client. TradeStation's Strategy Automation Engine makes it possible for traders to automatically monitor and execute dozens or even hundreds of custom strategies and markets—from the simplest to the most complex.
TradeStation Securities has been repeatedly rated the best online brokerage, most recently by Barron’s magazine in March of 2011.
Two developments in 2011 promise to further expand TradeStation’s award-winning trading technology on a global level. First, TradeStation Group, Inc., was acquired by Monex Group, Inc., a leader in Japan's online brokerage market. This acquisition will allow TradeStation and Monex to complement one another via cross-utilization of technological development capabilities and customer and revenue bases. Second, TradeStation launched TradeStation Forex, our new state-of-the-art retail forex offering, and subsequently acquired IBFX Holdings, LLC, an innovative provider of forex trading services worldwide. This acquisition will further expand our rapidly growing global forex trading business.
If you are a committed trader and have not yet experienced the power of TradeStation, we sincerely urge you to do so.
We thank our clients for their support.
Very truly yours,

Salomon Sredni, President and Chief Executive Officer
