Lind-Waldock has been providing comprehensive, quality futures brokerage to individual traders worldwide since 1965. We are based in Chicago at one of the world's leading futures exchanges, the Chicago Board of Trade. We make it our business to know the business of futures—and the needs of our clients. That has been the legacy championed by our founder Barry Lind, and remains our mission today.
Lind-Waldock is one of the best-known and well-respected futures brokers in the industry, and an innovator. Catering to individual traders, we were the first futures brokerage firm to offer trading at discounted commissions. We also were first to develop our own order-routing system to U.S. exchange trading floors, and the first to offer clients an online order-entry platform. Our commitment to innovation remains unwavering. We strive to meet your changing demands, and anticipate future industry developments, too.
For over four decades in the futures brokerage business, Lind-Waldock has consistently provided what futures traders need: Cutting-edge technology. Access to markets worldwide. Outstanding client service.
