Get Started

Start with a call.
Or skip straight to the application.

Most producers want to talk through their operation first. Some are ready to move. Either way, you're working with a real broker who knows ag — not a call center and not a salesperson.

Option 2

Know what you need? Open an account directly.

If you’ve traded futures before and you’re ready to move, you can skip the conversation and go straight to the application. AgOptimus provides access to the futures markets through ADMIS. Most applications are reviewed within one to two business days.

You’ll still get a dedicated broker the moment your account is funded — that part doesn’t change.

Registered. Regulated. Transparent.

You're not opening an account with a platform. You're opening one with a person.

AgOptimus is a registered DBA of Optimus Futures, LLC — a CFTC-registered Introducing Broker and NFA member. Client funds are held in segregated accounts under CFTC Rule 1.20.

When you open an account, you’re paired with a broker who knows grain and livestock markets. The same broker handles your calls, your strategy, and your trades. No queues. No voicemail.

Getting Started

Questions before you commit?

How long does the application take?

The application itself takes about 15 minutes. Once submitted, it’s typically reviewed and approved within one to two business days. You’ll need basic business information, identification, and financial details — standard for any regulated brokerage account.

Do I need to fund the account to talk to a broker?

No. You can talk to a broker before you fund anything. Most producers have a conversation first, make sure the fit is right, then decide whether to open and fund an account. Request a callback above and someone will be in touch.

Is there a minimum account size?

Minimums depend on what you’re hedging and how. With the availability of mini and micro contracts, producers of all sizes can access meaningful price protection. A broker can walk you through what makes sense for your operation on the first call.

What platforms will I have access to?

Every AgOptimus account includes access to Optimus Flow for live quotes, charts, and order execution. You’ll also have access to Numbers.ag for AI-powered market data and Grain Basis for local basis intelligence. Platform fees are included.

What if I've never traded futures before?

That’s what a dedicated broker is for. Many of our clients are first-generation hedgers — farmers and ranchers who never touched a futures account before. Your broker walks you through the mechanics, the risk, and the strategy, and doesn’t let you place a trade you don’t understand.

Still not sure which door to pick?

Pick up the phone. A broker will help you figure it out in ten minutes.
