Account Funding

Your trading can begin only when cleared funds are made payable to R.J.O'Brien and provided in one of the following ways:

• Please contact RJO Client Services at 1.800.621.0757 extension 5250 for detailed wire instructions.
• A certified check or cashier's check made payable to R.J.O'Brien. will also allow you to begin trading immediately. If you are opening a new account, personal checks, money market checks, and savings & loan checks may require clearance before you can trade. Cash currencies cannot be accepted. In addition, all funds coming into the account must match the name on the account.
• If you are TRANSFERRING your account from another firm, please fill out the form in the back of your application, return it to R.J.O'Brien with other required documents (via your Introducing Broker, if any), and we will transfer positions and funds accordingly.

When your account is open and trading, carefully read your statements as soon as you receive them. If you plan to be away, check in with your broker frequently. Do not delay reviewing your trading status...this is important! If you have any questions about an individual trade or your balance or position, phone your account representative (broker) immediately. If he or she is unavailable or a problem is not resolved at once, call the R.J.O'Brien Compliance staff in Chicago at (800) 621-0757.
