TradeStation Adds Micro WTI Crude Oil Futures to Its Offering

TradeStation Securities, Inc. (TradeStation), a Monex Group company and award-winning broker-dealer and futures commission merchant, announced that it has added CME Group's Micro WTI Crude Oil futures to its offering.

CME Group has announced that Micro WTI Crude Oil futures will give traders of all sizes a smaller, more precise instrument for managing crude oil price exposure, and that at 1/10 the size of the benchmark WTI futures contract, Micro WTI Crude Oil futures offers the same robust transparency and price discovery of larger WTI futures with smaller margin requirements.

TradeStation clients can now trade Micro WTI Crude Oil futures through the TradeStation desktop platform, web trading, mobile application, as well as the TradeStation FuturesPlus platform. Whichever way customers choose to trade, they'll have access to TradeStation's analysis tools, educational offerings and customer service.
