Once you have


completed everything
you will see this
screenshot on step 6.

That's it for now. You


are not able to deposit
funds just yet. They will
come back to you
(might take a few days)
and hopefully accept
your application right
away. After they
activated your account,
you can continue with
the next steps.

Step 7: IMPORTANT! Funds


Destination must be your
FUTURES account (you should
have two accounts to choose
from: equities and futures) The
funds must be deposited on the
futures account otherwise we do
not get the exchange subscription
data for free. Select a small
amount like 200 USD and click on
"view instructions"

Step 8: All the account details


are the same. You should have
the same as stated on the
screenshot. The only thing that
is different is the "further credit
to" and "account number".

How TradeStation does the


funds allocation: They receive
all funds on their main
JPMorgan Chase account and
then distribute it to the
individual client's account.

Emirates NBD transfer example: If you


have an Emirates NBD account you can
use all the same details.

The only thing that changes for you is the


"purpose of transfer": Important! Here
you state your full name and futures
account number. This is the only way they
can distribute your funds to your TS
account.
