Hello,
Has anyone in the forum traded on Options and Futures? Who are the good brokers in Canada for this type of trading. Are there any specialised options brokers here like optionsexpress in the USA? Is it possible for a Canadian Resident to have a US broker?

Thanks

Discount Brokers like TD Waterhouse, Action Direct, Etrade etc..all offer options trading. They are cheap compared to full service brokers with no minimums. They have 1-800 numbers or u can trade online also.
