Sledge,

If your futures broker is charging you $7.50 per side ($15 R/T) per contract for electronically trading currency futures at the CME, you ought to seriously be seeking another broker.

You should be able to get much, much better rates these days....

I agree.

Open ECry's published rates are lower than that.
