Additional Terms and Conditions: $6.99 per trade offer applies to clients who open and fund a flat-fee equity account by 12/31/2008. This offer cannot be combined with any other offer.

*Per-share equities commissions, which under certain circumstances may be lower and more advantageous to smaller-share-per-order traders, are primarily designed for use by active individual, institutional, and professional stock traders desiring the highest level of execution quality and speed. As such, the intelligent-routing algorithm predominantly leverages the advantages of more expensive execution destinations such as ECNs and electronic exchanges.

**Flat-fee equities commissions, which under certain circumstances may be lower and more advantageous to larger-share-per-order traders, are primarily designed for use by individual traders who value execution quality and speed, and desire the highest level of flexibility with their execution costs. As such, the intelligent-routing algorithm may favor less expensive execution destinations including market makers.

Flat-fee and per-share commissions shown are based on intelligent order routing. Direct routing of flat-fee orders is available at no additional charge for orders of up to 5000 shares; direct-routed flat-fee orders of over 5000 shares will be charged an additional $.005 per share in excess of 5000 shares. Flat-fee commission rate for the first calendar month will be $9.99 per trade for all equity trades. In subsequent calendar months, the flat-fee commission rate will be based on the equity trading activity in your account from the prior month. For example, if the total number of equity trades in all your TradeStation flat-fee accounts under the same customer ID is over 30 in July, then all equity trades placed in your commission accounts in August will be $6.99 per trade.
