I agree with you guys, I don't like having to ask permission to trade something. I guess some brokers just prefer to keep tabs on you, but it can be a pain in the butt.
I've recently began discussions with Open ECry and I must say, I am impressed thus far for a futures broker. Very accommodating and willing to get your business. There's something to be said about being able to work with a smaller firm that has the ability to do what it takes (w/in reason) to get your biz. I'd suggest at least contacting OEC if you are in the market for a broker.
