You can do all your trading from a single Lightspeed account whether you’re trading equities or options, trading to multiple destinations, or trading for multiple funds.

INDUSTRY RECOGNITION

Don’t let us try and convince you. The industry has spoken. Lightspeed Trading has been recognized by many industry experts as a leader for active trading, including being voted 4 years in a row by Barron's as the Best Broker for Frequent Trading and voted by StockBrokers.com as #1 in Active Trading.

SECURITY AND INSURANCE

Lightspeed brings you the latest in authentication technology. Our 2-step verification adds an extra layer of protection to your account settings and fund transfers by sending one-time-use pass codes to your mobile device.

Wedbush provides excess Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) coverage for each client account carried by Wedbush on behalf of Lightspeed. Each account is covered up to $25,500,000 at no charge. SIPC provides coverage up to $500,000, of which a maximum of $250,000 applies to cash credit balances. In addition to the SIPC coverage, Wedbush has purchased from Lloyd’s of London an excess SIPC bond that provides additional coverage for up to $25,000,000 in cash and securities for each client account, subject to an aggregate loss limit of $100,000,000. This bond covers cash credit balances to a maximum of $900,000 for a total of $1,150,000 in cash balances. Neither SIPC coverage, nor the coverage of excess of that provided by SIPC, covers a decline in the value of a customer’s assets due to market loss. For further information about SIPC, please view the organization’s website: www.sipc.org.
