Hello, I have a live and funded Interactive Brokers Cash account, but futures trading permission is currently not enabled. Can this account still be used to qualify for CME non-professional Denali pricing, or is active futures trading permission required? If futures permission is required, would a live and funded AMP Futures account be acceptable instead? Thank you. |

An Interactive Brokers account, even without the Futures trading permission not set, will work to qualify for the Non-Professional requirement from the CME Group. An account with AMP will also work. Your "Verified Until" date is currently showing as "October 28, 2026", so you have made a good connection to a live trading account. Whatever trading account you used to make this connection, you can continue with that one. This date must be in the future in order to be able to get the real-time CME Group data at the non-professional rates. When you make a good connection to your live account, that date updates to 30 days from the current date.
