A Bit of Company History
Ira began in the futures markets in 1969. Over the years he worked his way up, starting from the ground up as a "floor runner" to that of a trader in the pit. In 1984 Ira founded "Ira Epstein & Company", a trading firm specializing in retail and self-directied discount futures trading. Along the way Ira became a leader in trading technology. He was amongst the first to embrace the Internet, which as you know has dramatically changed both the way information is delivered and how trading takes place today.
One of the ways Ira, along with his brokers showcase their talents is through his "Futures Videos", which can be viewed on our website, through our LGP-IraChart Software and on YouTube. Viewership is large. In the thousands....daily!
2009...a year of change
In 2009 Ira joined the Linn Group (LG). LG is Futures Clearing Merchant with whom Ira has maintained a 15-year relationship. Through The Linn Group customers are provided with a substantial amount of proprietary market information and trading technology. Customers can access market quotes, charts and news through one of our LGP trading platforms or the market information can be custom tailored and e-mailed to you.
Trading Technology
Ira and The Linn Group spent many years together developing a unique Trading Platform, LGP. By combining Charts, Market Information and a robust Order Entry Platform into one software platform, traders literally have a one-stop trading screen. We've eliminated the need to move between web browser screens to access charts, view account activity, marketinformation and order placement. Do it all on one screen, or simply open multiple screens within our trading platform.
"Price Ladders" showing depth of market are available for those who's trading style require them. One Click Trading along with a very robust Paper Trading Platform is extremely popular with our Customers.
