Higher service fees, commissions, connection fees and margins than other futures brokers. They even charge for using their own trading software, which is odd. However, customer service is decently responsive. Even the base commission is >30% higher than other brokers. Micro margin requirements are >3x higher as well. Wire withdrawal charges are also 33% higher.

Thank you for your feedback — we appreciate the opportunity to clarify.

We’re not quite sure what “service fees” you’re referring to. Optimus Futures does not charge any platform fees for Optimus Flow, nor do we impose hidden costs. Our commissions operate on a sliding scale — traders with higher volumes often receive better pricing, a feature not all brokers offer.

Additionally:

CME charges for market data — this is standard across all brokers.

CQG charges for connectivity, a common practice among those using professional-grade routing systems.

Optimus Futures only charges commissions, and we’re always happy to provide a full breakdown of costs upfront. If you’d like help reviewing your setup or seeing if you're eligible for lower pricing: optimusfutures.com/Futures-Trading-Pricing.php

Having a position with max possible contract size results in no possibility to close the position with "close" with brackets (tradingview) instead you have to move the sl or tp bracket to get out of the trade! That's not intuitive and bad UI experience.

Thank you for your feedback — we genuinely appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and experiences.

To clarify, while we provide the connection to TradingView, the actual bracket behavior and order execution are managed by them through the CQG routing system. We've shared your comments with their team to help improve the platform experience.

Also, to note — while interface design (UI) impacts usability, it doesn’t necessarily reflect the risk management capabilities of the platform or your account setup. If you'd like help finding a more intuitive workflow for managing positions — especially at max size — our team would be happy to walk you through alternative methods or suggest platform-specific adjustments.

We’re always here to support your trading journey.

Decent value for the money, but you have to pay for any additional add-ons such as DOM.

Thank you for your feedback—we appreciate it! To clarify, any additional charges for tools such as the Depth of Market (DOM) or Level 2 data are directly incurred from the CME exchange. Optimus Futures does not add any markup—we pass through the exact fee as required.

We always aim to be transparent about costs and are happy to help you navigate the differences between exchange-based and platform-related fees. If you have any questions or need help optimizing your setup, we’re here to assist you. 🤝

They ask me literally 30 times a day to leave a review.

We truly appreciate the 5-star rating—thank you!

Just a quick note: TradingView, not us, sends those rating prompts. Optimus Futures isn't spamming you 30 times a day… we promise! 😄

Thanks again for your support!
