As an experienced trader, careful scrutiny of costs and transparency is core to my evaluation of any broker. With CITIC Futures, the fee structure appears notably complex and product-specific, which is typical among large, institutional-grade Chinese futures brokers. While it's clear CITIC Futures is properly regulated in both China and Hong Kong and that it has operated for over five years, I could not find a simple, unified breakdown of commissions and spreads. Instead, the fees differ depending on the specific product and the exchange on which it is traded. This is a common practice for futures brokers operating within China's regulatory framework, where each exchange sets its own fee standards and brokers supplement these with their own commission structures. For me, this means any prospective client must be prepared to do their own due diligence by reviewing the official CITIC Futures website for the latest, precise charges on the contracts they wish to trade. There may also be various other service fees, which are typical for large brokers offering multiple platforms and technical support. Incidentally, the presence of various fees was also noted as a potential disadvantage by third-party reviewers. I would therefore approach CITIC Futures with an awareness that, although they have robust risk management and regulation, understanding the full cost of trading with them requires extra effort and caution. This is particularly relevant for those whose trading strategies are highly sensitive to transaction costs.
