Do you accept IRA accounts?
IRA and retirement accounts are accepted at Edge Clear. We urge clients to use caution when using retirement funds for high-risk investments like futures. These accounts need to be opened with a custodian that allows for alternative investments.
Given the high-leverage in Futures, IRA accounts will not be permitted to have Day Trading Margins less than 50% of the Exchange Initial Margin on all Futures products.
If you do not currently have a Futures friendly custodian for your IRA, please contact a broker and we will be happy to assist.
