Yes, the full service firms like UBS, Morgan Stanley, Merrill Lynch and Smith Barney. They all can invest in all of those, except most just hold a managed futures license(can only offer a pool of funds for the futures market). But usually, there are at least two financial advisors in those offices that can offer individual futures contracts.

At those firms, you will be charged a commission, priced as a percentage of trades and price, can’t be below 10dollars for the commission and most of those financial advisors don’t get paid on commissions below 50 dollars per trade. If you want to trade alot, you can have a percentage based portfolio with unlimited trades(except day traders) and that is around 1% for the portfolio. Of course, you can then write off 85% of that fee(%based portfolio) at the end of the year on your tax’s.

So to conclude, the full service firms will offer that for you, but it might be more expensive than if you found a place online that does it. But atleast I know for sure they offer these services.

FYI-some financial advisors may not want to take that type of risky business, so my advice if going to a full service firm, call them on the phone and ask for the Branch Manager to suggest somebody in the office with the skill/licensing/ and experience to help you. And interview a couple till you feel comfortable.
