Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 9, 2006, as part of its previously-announced stock buy back plan, TradeStation Group, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Rule 10b5-1 agreement (the "Agreement") with Sandler O'Neill & Partners, L.P. (the "Agent"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company, through the Agent, will repurchase, as described below, up to $60 million of the Company's common stock ("Common Stock").

The purchases under the Agreement will occur in the open market or through privately-negotiated transactions over a four-year period, with the first purchase to occur no earlier than November 13, 2006. From November 13, 2006 through November 30, 2006, the Agent shall use up to $750,000 of Company cash (inclusive of commissions) to purchase, without price restriction, Common Stock. Thereafter, each calendar month, commencing December 2006 and ending October 2010, the Agent shall use up to $1,250,000 (per month) of Company cash (inclusive of commissions) to purchase, without price restriction, Common Stock. Then, from November 1, 2010 through November 12, 2010, the Agent shall use up to $500,000 of Company cash (inclusive of commissions) to purchase, without price restriction, Common Stock. Consistent with the foregoing purchase schedule, the Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to purchase for the account of the Company, consistent with its duty of best execution, Common Stock at the lowest possible price within the guidelines of Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

The foregoing is subject to early termination at any time and other applicable provisions of the Agreement and, in all events, purchases of Common Stock pursuant to the Agreement shall terminate the earlier of (a) the use of $60,000,000 of Company cash (inclusive of commissions) and (b) the close of trading on November 12, 2010 (or, if not a trading day, the trading day immediately preceding November 12, 2010).

The foregoing description of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of the Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
