Managed Futures Accounts are managed or traded by a Commodity Trading Advisor (CTA). CTAs are professional traders registered with the National Futures Association (NFA) to trade on behalf of investors. CTAs are regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), and the NFA to safeguard the integrity of the derivatives markets, protect investors and ensure Members meet their regulatory responsibilities. CTAs manage accounts with a variety of strategies. Some employ a systematic approach using computerized trading systems to make buy/sell decisions while others use a discretionary trading style based on market knowledge or expertise.
CTA account minimums range from $5,000 to over $1,000,000.
