Maximum Leverage and Intra-Day Buying Power
TradeStation Securities allows you to maximize your day trading buying power by offering you the maximum equities margin rate allowed by NYSE and NASD regulations, as well as equally low overnight and day trading margin requirements for futures. We offer equity buying power equal to 4 times maintenance excess (4:1) for all accounts that meet the minimum equity requirements for day trading accounts. Your intra-day buying power is calculated and reflected on a real-time basis in TradeStation's Trade Manager, so you're updated on your current positions and maximum buying power at all times.


TradeStation Securities provides clients with a valuable alternative to the traditional broker-dealer relationship. Because we act exclusively as your agent for your equities, options and futures trades, our efforts are purely in your best interest. As an agency-only broker, we remain neutral, neither buying nor selling securities or futures for our own account. To avoid conflicts of interest that can affect where your order is routed, unlike other brokerages, we don't do proprietary trading for our own account, do not own a market maker, do not own an ECN, and have no inventory to sell to clients so that we profit. We are motivated by a singular objective: To help our clients achieve optimal trading results by seeking to offer them the best execution on each and every equities, options and futures trade.
