Apparently they are giving out $500 in free commission when you transfer your account from a competing broker over to Mirus.
Per their website:
Transfer your existing trading account to Mirus before April 1st, 2012, and receive up to a $500 commission credit on trades placed prior to June 30th.*
Requirements:
- Must be an account transfer.
- Account must be funded by April 1st, 2012, with $5000 minimum.
- Free commissions will be applied as a $0.25 credit per contract at the end of each month based on Mirus Standard rates.
If my math is right, you'll need 1000 contract round turn's in order to get the maximum $500 compensation but you've got 3 months to do it. You'll want to check that math
You can follow that link and do it online if this interests you. I also notice their website shows the nexusfi.com (formerly BMT) Best of Trading Award results, so I'll remind everyone that Mirus Futures has won #1/Gold two years in a row on nexusfi.com (formerly BMT): Best Of Trading - Big Mike Trading
I am existing customer of mirus and i was showed this announcement by my friend that also trades with mirus. I am really upset about this. I can not understand why they would offer credit to new customer and not credit the existing customers too. I have been trading with them for a long time and if they can afford to credit new customers, that have not even traded with them, then i think they should extend the customer aprreciation credit to all of us that have been with them for a long time. I do not need the $500, but i do not like the way it feels. They seem to care only about getting new customers and not worried about us.
I spoke to Tony Pacione at Mirus, and he confirmed that they will give the $500 commission credit under the same terms to existing customers, so long as the transfer comes from another broker.
You can email him for further clarification: tony.pacione /*AT*/ mirusfutures.com
I was thinking of switching from Mirus to AMP because of lower fees. After looking at their web site I find it loaded with spelling mistakes, bad grammar and other basic page design issues.
I am always nervous when I see things like this because I wonder how many other mistakes they make on the trading and account side.
Does anyone have any feedback on the quality of their operations? Maybe I'm just being too picky.
I have been with AMP for a while now and they suit my needs. While CS is not their strong point, I never have any issues with accounting or getting a hold of someone at the trade desk. CQG feed is pretty rock solid.
