Are you a professional or experienced trader? If so, you may not need a broker; nor do you need to pay for service that you won't use.  If you opt for a self-directed online trading account you should be well versed in options and futures and comfortable with accepting the risk of placing your own trades.  If this is you, save yourself some money and go for this option!
