Currently with IB, which is great except for the ridiculous VIX futures margin requirements.

You can trade the VIX over the CQG platforms: CQG Trader, Q Trader or CQG IC.
If you day trade, some of our FCMs provide 50% on initial or lower depending on your trading needs.
Some of our FCMs receive Canadian customers from most FCMs.
Thank you,

CQG's Q Trader, offered at $40/mth plus 25 cents a side/trade, if you can use the data from that to power Ninja, that would be a cheap setup, any comparative costs for setups. Q Trader is reasonably robust front end, usually use TT, I find CQG IC …
