Basis of Presentation and Consolidation [Abstract]
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block]	Basis of Presentation and Consolidation and Accounting Standards Adopted INTL FCStone Inc. , a Delaware corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively “INTL” or “the Company”), is a diversified global financial services organization providing execution, risk management and advisory services, market intelligence, and clearing services across asset classes and markets around the world. The Company’s services include comprehensive risk management advisory services for commercial clients; execution of listed futures and options on futures contracts on all major commodity exchanges; structured over-the-counter (“OTC”) products in a wide range of commodities; physical trading and hedging of precious metals and select other commodities; trading of more than 140 foreign currencies; market-making in international equities; fixed income; debt origination and asset management. The Company provides these services to a diverse group of more than 20,000 predominantly wholesale organizations located throughout the world, including producers, processors and end-users of nearly all widely-traded physical commodities to manage their risks and enhance margins; to commercial counterparties who are end-users of the Company’s products and services; to governmental and non-governmental organizations; and to commercial banks, brokers, institutional investors and major investment banks. Basis of Presentation and Consolidation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018 , which has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of September 30, 2018 , and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented have been reflected as required by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 filed with the SEC. These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of INTL FCStone Inc. and all other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is September 30, and the fiscal quarters end on December 31, March 31, June 30 and September 30. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to fiscal years and fiscal interim periods. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant of these estimates and assumptions relate to fair value measurement for financial instruments and investments, revenue recognition, the provision for bad debts, valuation of inventories, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, incomes taxes, and contingencies. Although these and other estimates and assumptions are based on the best available information, actual results could be materially different from these estimates. In the condensed consolidated income statements, the total revenues reported combine gross revenues for the physical commodities business and net revenues for all other businesses. The subtotal ‘operating revenues’ in the condensed consolidated income statements is calculated by deducting physical commodities cost of sales from total revenues. The subtotal ‘net operating revenues’ in the condensed consolidated income statements is calculated as operating revenues less transaction-based clearing expenses, introducing broker commissions and interest expense. Transaction-based clearing expenses represent variable expenses paid to executing brokers, exchanges, clearing organizations and banks in relation to transactional volumes. Introducing broker commissions include commission paid to non-employee third parties that have introduced clients to the Company. Net operating revenues represent revenues available to pay variable compensation to risk management consultants and traders and direct non-variable expenses, as well as variable and non-variable expenses of operational and administrative employees. Reclassifications During the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, the Company reclassified certain brokerage related revenues for which the Company earns commissions on trading activity in the capacity of an agent. In performing this reclassification, the Company has made a retrospective adjustment to the condensed consolidated income statements for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, brokerage related revenues of $9.2 million and $17.9 million , respectively, were reclassified from ‘trading gains, net’ to ‘commissions and clearing fees’. Additionally, the Company has renamed the line item ‘trading gains, net’ to ‘principal gains, net’ on the condensed consolidated income statements in order to reflect the fact that these revenue streams are earned from trading financial instruments in the capacity of a principal and in order to properly segregate revenues earned from contracts with clients in connection with the adoption of the new revenue standard as discussed below. Accounting Standards Adopted On October 1, 2018, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”) using the modified retrospective transition method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of October 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after October 1, 2018, are presented under Topic 606, and amounts prior to October 1, 2018 are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with historical accounting standard, FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 605”). The adoption of Topic 606 had no impact to retained earnings as of October 1, 2018, or to revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2018. The Company’s accounting for revenues within the scope of Topic 606 are materially consistent with those accounting principles and practices applied to accounting for revenues under Topic 605. The new revenue recognition model does not apply to revenues associated with financial instruments or contracts, including derivatives and interest income. For further information refer to Note 2 . In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statements of Cash Flows (“Topic 230”): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which clarifies how companies present and classify certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance on October 1, 2018 and the adoption had no impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. On October 1, 2018, the Company adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-18, Statements of Cash Flows (“Topic 230”): Classification and Presentation of Restricted Cash in the Statements of Cash Flows, using the retrospective transition method. In accordance with the provisions of ASU 2016-18, the Company changed its condensed consolidated statements of cash flows presentation convention to explain the changes in cash and cash equivalents, as well as cash and cash equivalents segregated for regulatory purposes. U.S. Treasury obligations with original or acquired maturities of 90 days or less held with third-party banks or pledged with exchange-clearing organizations representing investments of segregated client funds, or which are held for particular clients in lieu of cash margin, are included in segregated cash equivalents. Purchases, sales, as well as client pledges and redemptions in lieu of cash margin, of U.S. Treasury obligations with original or acquired maturities of greater than 90 days representing investments of segregated client funds are presented as operating uses and sources of cash, respectively, within the operating section of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017- 09, Scope of Modification Accounting (“Topic 718”), which amends the scope of modification accounting for share- based payment arrangements. ASU 2017- 09 provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share- based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. Specifically, an entity would not apply modification accounting if the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The Company adopted ASU 2017- 09 on October 1, 2018. The adoption of the ASU had no impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Revenue from Contract with Clients [Abstract]
Revenue from Contract with Customer [Text Block]	Note 2 – Revenue from Contracts with Clients Beginning on October 1, 2018, the Company accounts for revenue earned from contracts with clients for services such as the execution, clearing, brokering, and custody of futures and options on futures contracts, OTC derivatives, and securities, investment management, and underwriting services under Topic 606. As such, revenues for these services are recognized when the performance obligations related to the underlying transaction are completed. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to clients, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. Revenues are analyzed to determine whether the Company is the principal (i.e. reports revenue on a gross basis) or agent (i.e., reports revenues on a net basis) in the contract. Principal or agent designations depend primarily on the control an entity has over the good or service before control is transferred to a client. The indicators of which party exercises control include primary responsibility over performance obligations, inventory risk before the good or service is transferred, and discretion in establishing the price. The new revenue recognition model does not apply to revenues associated with dealing, or market-making, activities in financial instruments or contracts in the capacity of a principal, including derivative sales contracts which result in physical settlement and interest income. The Company’s revenues from contracts with clients subject to Topic 606 represent approximately 1.4% and 1.9% of the Company’s total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and approximately 1.6% of the Company’s total revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 . The Company’ revenues from contracts with clients subject to Topic 606 represent approximately 38.4% and 48.0% of the Company’s operating revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and approximately 41.6% and 48.2% of the Company’s operating revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. This includes all of the Company’s commission and clearing fees and consulting, management, and account fees revenues. Revenues within the scope of Topic 606 are presented within ‘Commission and clearing fees’ and ‘Consulting, management, and account fees’ on the condensed consolidated income statements. Revenues that are not within the scope of Topic 606 are presented within ‘Sales of physical commodities’, ‘Principal gains, net’, and ‘Interest income’ on the condensed consolidated income statements. The following table represents a disaggregation of the Company’s total revenues separated between revenues from contracts with clients and other sources of revenue for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 (in millions): Three Months Ended March 31, Six Months Ended March 31, 2019 2018 2019 2018 Revenues from contracts with clients: Commission and clearing fees: Sales-based: Exchange-traded futures and options $ 31.2 $ 44.0 $ 70.3 $ 78.6 OTC derivative brokerage 7.3 8.3 16.2 15.8 Equities and fixed income 3.6 2.8 6.8 5.6 Mutual funds 1.9 2.1 4.5 4.1 Insurance and annuity products 1.5 1.5 3.0 3.0 Other 0.5 — 0.7 0.6 Total sales-based commission 46.0 58.7 101.5 107.7 Trailing: Mutual funds 3.0 3.3 6.2 6.6 Insurance and annuity products 3.4 3.7 7.1 7.3 Total trailing commission 6.4 7.0 13.3 13.9 Clearing fees 26.8 34.5 59.4 59.5 Trade conversion fees 3.3 2.0 4.9 3.8 Other 2.6 4.2 5.5 8.0 Total commission and clearing fees: 85.1 106.4 184.6 192.9 Consulting, management, and account fees: Underwriting fees 0.2 0.7 0.5 1.3 Asset management fees 6.0 6.4 12.2 12.5 Advisory and consulting fees 4.7 4.8 9.7 9.4 Sweep program fees 4.1 2.7 7.9 4.9 Customer account fees 2.5 2.9 5.2 5.7 Other 1.6 0.9 2.7 1.2 Total consulting, management, and account fees 19.1 18.4 38.2 35.0 Total revenues from contracts with clients $ 104.2 $ 124.8 $ 222.8 $ 227.9 Method of revenue recognition: Point-in-time $ 83.0 $ 103.9 $ 179.7 $ 187.2 Time elapsed 21.2 20.9 43.1 40.7 Total revenues from contracts with clients 104.2 124.8 222.8 227.9 Other sources of revenues Precious metals trading 6,660.9 6,031.6 12,616.4 13,563.5 Agricultural and energy merchandising and origination 268.6 224.2 608.9 406.7 Principal gains, net 110.3 98.5 203.1 175.6 Interest income 48.2 27.9 93.2 51.9 Total revenues $ 7,192.2 $ 6,507.0 $ 13,744.4 $ 14,425.6 Primary geographic region: United States $ 456.6 $ 404.1 $ 983.6 $ 728.0 Europe 53.8 47.8 107.1 93.0 South America 12.4 16.7 23.9 31.7 Middle East and Asia 6,667.3 6,037.4 12,625.9 13,571.0 Other 2.1 1.0 3.9 1.9 Total revenues $ 7,192.2 $ 6,507.0 $ 13,744.4 $ 14,425.6 The substantial majority of the Company’s performance obligations for revenues from contracts with clients are satisfied at a point in time and are typically collected from clients by debiting their accounts with the Company. Commission and clearing fees revenue is primarily related to the Commercial Hedging and Clearing and Execution Services reportable segments. Consulting, management, and accounts fees are primarily related to the Commercial Hedging, Clearing and Execution Services, and Securities reportable segments. Principal gains, net is primarily related to the Commercial Hedging, Global Payments, and Securities reportable segments. Interest income is primarily related to the Commercial Hedging, Securities, and Clearing and Execution Services reportable segments. Precious metals trading and agricultural and energy merchandising and origination revenues are primarily related to the Physical Commodities reportable segment. Commission and Clearing Fees Commission revenue represents sales and brokerage commissions generated by internal brokers, introducing broker-dealers, or registered investment advisors of introducing-broker dealers for their clients’ trading activity in futures, options on futures, OTC derivatives, fixed income securities, equity securities, mutual funds, and annuities. The Company views the selling, distribution, and marketing, or any combination thereof, of mutual funds and insurance and annuity products to clients on the Company’s registered investment advisor (“RIA”) platform as a single performance obligation to the product sponsors. The Company is the principal for commission revenue, as it is responsible for the execution of the clients’ purchases and sales, and maintains relationships with product sponsors for trailing commission. Introducing broker dealers and registered investment advisors assist the Company in performing its obligations. Accordingly, total commission revenues are reported on a gross basis. The Company primarily generates commission revenue on exchange-traded derivatives, OTC derivatives, and securities. Exchange-traded and OTC derivative commissions are recognized at a point in time on the trade date when the client, either directly or through the use of an internal broker or introducing broker, requests the clearance and execution of a trade. Securities commissions are either sale-based commission that are recognized at a point in time on the trade date or trailing commission that are recognized over time as earned. Sales-based securities commission is for a flat fee per security transaction or in certain instances are based on a percentage of an investment product’s current market value at the time of purchase. Trailing commission revenue is generally based on a percentage of the current market value of clients’ investment holdings in trail-eligible assets, and is recognized over the period during which services, such as on-going support, are performed. As trailing commission revenue is based on the market value of clients’ investment holdings in trail-eligible assets, this variable consideration is constrained until the market value of trail-eligible assets is determinable. Clearing fees generally represent transactional based fees charged by the various exchanges and clearing organizations for which the Company or one of its clearing brokers is a member for the privilege of executing and clearing trades through them. Clearing fees are generally passed through to the clients’ accounts and are reported gross as the Company maintains control over the clearing and execution services provided, maintains relationships with the exchanges or clearing brokers, and has ultimate discretion in whether the fees are passed through to the clients and the rates at which they are passed through. As clearing fees are transactional based revenues they are recognized at a point in time on the trade date along with the related commission revenue when the client requests the clearance and execution of a trade. Trade Conversion Revenue Trade conversion revenue includes fees earned from converting foreign ordinary equities into an American Depository Receipt (“ADR”) or Global Depository Receipt (“GDR”) and fees earned from converting an ADR or GDR into foreign ordinary equities on behalf of clients. Trade conversion revenue is reported on a trade date basis. Underwriting Fees Revenues from investment banking consists of revenues earned from underwriting fixed income securities, primarily municipal and asset-backed securities, and are recognized in revenues upon completion of the underlying transaction, which is generally the trade date, based upon the terms of the assignment as the performance obligation is to successfully broker a specific transaction. Asset Management Fees The Company earns asset management fees on Company sponsored and managed mutual funds and on the advisory accounts of independent registered investment advisors on the Company’s platform. The Company provides ongoing investment advice and acts as a custodian, providing brokerage and execution services on transactions, and performs administrative services for these accounts. This series of performance obligations transfers control of the services to the client over time as the services are performed. This revenue is recognized ratably over time to match the continued delivery of the performance obligations to the client over the life of the contract. The asset management revenue generated is based on a percentage of the market value of the eligible assets in the clients’ accounts. As such, the consideration for this revenue is variable and this variable consideration is constrained until the market value of eligible assets in the clients’ accounts is determinable. Advisory and Consulting Fees Advisory and consulting fees are primarily related to risk management consulting fees which are billed and recognized as revenue on a monthly basis when risk management services are provided. Such agreements are generally for one year periods, but are generally cancelable by either party upon providing thirty days’ written notice to the other party and the amounts are not variable based on client trading activities. This revenue is generally recognized ratably over time to match the continued delivery of the performance obligation to the client over the life of the contract. Sweep Program Fees The Company earns fees generated in lieu of interest income from a multi-bank sweep program with unaffiliated banks and money market funds. Pursuant to contractual arrangements with clients and their introducing-brokers, available cash balances in client accounts are swept into either Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured cash accounts at unaffiliated banks or unaffiliated money market funds for which the Company earns a portion of the interest income generated by the client balances for administration and recordkeeping. The fees generated by the Company’s multi-bank sweep program are reported net of the balances remitted to the introducing-brokers and the clients of introducing-brokers. These fees are paid and recognized over time to match the continued delivery of the administration and recordkeeping performance obligations to the life of the contract. The fees earned under this program are generally based upon the type of sweep account, prevailing interest rates, and the amount of client balances invested. Client Accounts Fees Client accounts fees represent fees earned for custodial, recordkeeping, and administrative functions performed for the securities clearing accounts of clients. These include statement delivery fees, account transfer fees, safekeeping fees, errors and omission insurance fees, platform fees, and other fees. Client account fees that are transactional based, such as account transfer fees, are recognized at a point in time when the related performance obligation is satisfied. Client account fees that are related to ongoing services, such as statement delivery fees and errors and omission insurance fees, are recognized over time. Client account fees that relate to ongoing services are typically billed to clients’ accounts on a monthly or quarterly basis. Physical Precious Metals Trading The Company principally generates revenue from trading physical precious metals on an OTC basis. Revenues from the sale of physical precious metals are recorded on a trade date basis and generally settle on an unallocated basis. Substantially all of the Company’s sales of precious metals are conducted using sales contracts that meet the definition of derivative instruments in accordance with ASC 815 - Derivatives and Hedging (“Topic 815”). The contracts underlying the Company’s commitment to deliver precious metals are referred to as fixed price forward commodity contracts because the price of the commodity is fixed at the time the order is placed. Although the contracts typically are executed on a spot basis and settle on unallocated account, the client has the option to request delivery of the precious metals, the option to net settle out of the position by executing an offsetting trade, or the option to roll the transaction to a subsequent maturity date. Thus, the sales contracts contain embedded option derivatives that would be subject to the guidance in Topic 815. As the contracts are subject to the guidance in Topic 815, the fixed price derivative sales contracts are outside the scope of Topic 606. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the inventory is transferred within the meaning of Topic 606. Physical Agricultural Commodity Merchandising and Origination The Company principally generates revenue from merchandising and originating physical agricultural and energy commodities from forward firm sales commitments accounted in accordance with Topic 815. The fixed and provisionally-priced derivative sales contracts that result in physical delivery are outside the scope of Topic 606. The Company recognizes revenue when control of the inventory is transferred within the meaning of Topic 606. Principal Gains, Net Principal gains, net includes revenues on financial transactions or contracts for which the Company acts as principal that is reported on a net basis and is primarily outside the scope of ASC 606. Principal gains, net includes margins generated from OTC derivative trades, equities, fixed income, and foreign exchange executed with clients and other counterparties and are recognized on a trade-date basis. Principal gains, net, also includes realized and unrealized gains and losses derived principally from market making activities in OTC derivatives, equities, fixed income, and foreign exchange. Net dealer inventory and investment gains are recognized on a trade-date basis and include realized gains or losses and changes in unrealized gains or losses on investments at fair value. Principal gains, net also includes dividend income on long equity positions and dividend expense on short equity positions, which are recognized on the ex-dividend date. Interest Income Interest income is generated from client funds deposited with the Company to satisfy margin requirements which is held by third-party banks or on deposit with or pledged to exchange-clearing organizations or other FCMs. Interest income is also generated from the investment of client funds in allowable securities, primarily U.S. Treasury obligations. Interest income is also generated from trading fixed income securities that the Company holds in its market-making businesses. Interest income also includes interest generated from collateralized transactions, including securities borrowed and securities purchased under agreements to resell, and from extending margin loans to clients. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis and is not within the scope of Topic 606. Remaining Performance Obligations Remaining performance obligations are services that the firm has committed to perform in the future in connection with its contracts with clients. The Company’s remaining performance obligations are generally related to its risk management consulting and asset management contracts with clients. Revenues associated with remaining performance obligations related to these contracts with clients are not material to the overall consolidated results of the Company. For the Company’s asset management activities, where fees are calculated based on a percentage of the market value of eligible assets in client’s accounts, future revenue associated with remaining performance obligations cannot be determined as such fees are subject to fluctuations in the market value of eligible assets in clients’ accounts. Practical Expedients The Company has applied Topic 606’s practical expedient that permits for the non-disclosure of the value of performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length or one year or less and (ii) contracts for which the Company recognizes revenue at the amount to which is has the right to invoice for services performed. The Company has also applied Topic 606’s practical expedient that allows for no adjustment to consideration due to a significant financing component if the expectation at contract inception is such that the period between payment by the client and the transfer of the promised goods or services to the client will be one year or less.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share [Text Block]	Earnings per Share The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) using the two-class method which requires all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to non-forfeitable dividends and therefore participate in undistributed earnings with common stockholders be included in computing earnings per share. Under the two-class method, net income is reduced by the amount of dividends declared in the period for each class of common stock and participating security. The remaining undistributed earnings are then allocated to common stock and participating securities, based on their respective rights to receive dividends. Restricted stock awards granted to certain employees and directors contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends at the same rate as common stock, and are considered participating securities. Basic EPS has been computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the diluted earnings per share computations for the periods presented below. Three Months Ended March 31, Six Months Ended March 31, (in millions, except share amounts) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Numerator: Net income $ 23.4 $ 22.7 $ 41.6 $ 15.8 Less: Allocation to participating securities (0.4 ) (0.3 ) (0.7 ) (0.3 ) Net income allocated to common stockholders $ 23.0 $ 22.4 $ 40.9 $ 15.5 Denominator: Weighted average number of: Common shares outstanding 18,753,490 18,559,849 18,706,104 18,502,795 Dilutive potential common shares outstanding: Share-based awards 251,303 299,484 293,785 333,418 Diluted weighted-average common shares 19,004,793 18,859,333 18,999,889 18,836,213 The dilutive effect of share-based awards is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method, which includes consideration of unamortized share-based compensation expense required under the Compensation – Stock Compensation Topic of the ASC.

Assets and Liabilities, at Fair

Assets and Liabilities, at Fair Value (Notes)	6 Months Ended

Assets and Liabilities, at Fair Value [Abstract]
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block]	Assets and Liabilities, at Fair Value Fair value is defined by U.S. GAAP as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants on the measurement date. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of a market participant rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, even when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company is required to develop a set of assumptions that reflect those that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including periods of market dislocation. In periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many securities. This condition could cause a security to be reclassified to a lower level within the fair value hierarchy. The Company has designed independent price verification controls and periodically performs such controls to ensure the reasonableness of such values. In accordance with FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, the Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are: Level 1 - Valuation is based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Level 1 consists of financial assets and liabilities whose fair values are estimated using quoted market prices. Level 2 - Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are less active, that is, markets in which there are few transactions for the asset or liability that are observable for substantially the full term. Included in Level 2 are those financial assets and liabilities for which fair values are estimated using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various observable inputs, including time value, yield curve, volatility factors, observable current market and contractual prices for the underlying financial instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Level 3 - Valuation is based on prices or valuation techniques that require an input that is both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity). Level 3 comprises financial assets and liabilities whose fair value is estimated based on internally developed models or methodologies utilizing significant inputs that are not readily observable from objective sources. The Company had no assets or liabilities classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018. Financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). A market is active if there are sufficient transactions on an ongoing basis to provide current pricing information for the asset or liability, pricing information is released publicly, and price quotations do not vary substantially either over time or among market participants. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. The guidance requires the Company to consider counterparty credit risk of all parties of outstanding derivative instruments that would be considered by a market participant in the transfer or settlement of such contracts (exit price). The Company’s exposure to credit risk on derivative financial instruments principally relates to the portfolio of OTC derivative contracts as all exchange-traded contracts held can be settled on an active market with a credit guarantee from the respective exchange. The Company requires each counterparty to deposit margin collateral for all OTC instruments and is also required to deposit margin collateral with counterparties. The Company has assessed the nature of these deposits and used its discretion to adjust each based on the underlying credit considerations for the counterparty and determined that the collateral deposits minimize the exposure to counterparty credit risk in the evaluation of the fair value of OTC instruments as determined by a market participant. Fair value of financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are carried on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value on a recurring basis Cash and cash equivalents reported at fair value on a recurring basis includes certificates of deposit and demand deposits, which are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value. Cash, securities and other assets segregated under federal and other regulations reported at fair value on a recurring basis include the value of pledged investments, primarily U.S. Treasury obligations and commodities warehouse receipts. Deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and payable to clients and broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties include the value of pledged investments, primarily U.S. Treasury obligations and foreign government obligations. These balances also include the fair value of exchange-traded options on futures and OTC forwards, swaps, and options. Financial instruments owned and sold, not yet purchased include the fair value of equity securities, which includes common, preferred, and foreign ordinary shares, ADRs, GDRs, and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), corporate and municipal bonds, U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. government agency obligations, foreign government obligations, agency mortgage-backed obligations, asset-backed obligations, OTC derivative financial instruments, commodities warehouse receipts, exchange firm common stock, and mutual funds and investments in managed funds. Cash equivalents, securities, commodities warehouse receipts, physical commodities inventory, and derivative financial instruments are carried at fair value, on a recurring basis, and are classified and disclosed into three levels in the fair value hierarchy. Except as disclosed in Note 7 , the Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018. The following section describes the valuation methodologies used by the Company to measure classes of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value and specifies the level within the fair value hierarchy where various financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are classified. The Company uses quoted prices in active markets, where available, and classifies such instruments within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Examples include U.S. Treasury obligations, foreign government obligations, commodities warehouse receipts, certain equity securities traded in active markets, physical precious metals held by a regulated broker-dealer subsidiary, exchange firm common stock, mutual funds and investments in managed funds, as well as exchange traded options on futures contracts. When instruments are traded in secondary markets and observable prices are not available for substantially the full term, the Company generally relies on internal valuation techniques or prices obtained from third-party pricing services or brokers or a combination thereof, and accordingly, classified these instruments as Level 2. Examples include corporate and municipal bonds, U.S. government agency obligations, agency-mortgage backed obligations, asset-backed obligations, certain equity securities traded in less active markets, and OTC derivative contracts, which include purchase and sale commitments related to the Company’s agricultural and energy commodities. Certain derivatives without a quoted price in an active market and derivatives executed OTC are valued using internal valuation techniques, including pricing models which utilize significant inputs observable to market participants. The valuation techniques and inputs depend on the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying instrument. The key inputs depend upon the type of derivative and the nature of the underlying instrument and include interest yield curves, foreign exchange rates, commodity prices, volatilities and correlation. These derivative instruments are included within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Physical commodities inventory includes precious metals that are a part of the trading activities of a regulated broker-dealer subsidiary and is recorded at net realizable value using exchange-quoted prices. Physical commodities inventory also includes agricultural commodities that are a part of the trading activities of a non-broker dealer subsidiary and are also recorded at net realizable value using exchange-quoted prices. The fair value of precious metals physical commodities inventory is based upon unadjusted exchange-quoted prices and is, therefore, classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of agricultural physical commodities inventory and the related OTC firm sale and purchase commitments are generally based upon exchange-quoted prices, adjusted for basis or differences in local markets, broker or dealer quotations or market transactions in either listed or OTC markets. Exchange-quoted prices are adjusted for location and quality because the exchange-quoted prices for agricultural and energy related products represent contracts that have standardized terms for commodity, quantity, future delivery period, delivery location, and commodity quality or grade. The basis or local market adjustments are observable inputs or have an insignificant impact on the measurement of fair value and, therefore, the agricultural physical commodities inventory as well as the related OTC forward firm sale and purchase commitments have been included within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. With the exception of certain derivative instruments, financial instruments owned and sold are primarily valued using third-party pricing vendors. Third-party pricing vendors compile prices from various sources and often apply matrix pricing for similar securities when market-observable transactions for the instruments are not observable for substantially the full term. The Company reviews the pricing methodologies used by third-party pricing vendors in order to evaluate the fair value hierarchy classification of vendor-priced financial instruments and the accuracy of vendor pricing, which typically involves the comparison of primary vendor prices to internal trader prices or secondary vendor prices. When evaluating the propriety of vendor-priced financial instruments using secondary prices, considerations include the range and quality of vendor prices, level of observable transactions for identical and similar instruments, and judgments based upon knowledge of a particular market and asset class. If the primary vendor price does not represent fair value, justification for using a secondary price, including source data used to make the determination, is subject to review and approval by authorized personnel prior to using a secondary price. Financial instruments owned and sold that are valued using third party pricing sources are included within either Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of the inputs used and the level of activity in the market. The fair value estimates presented herein are based on pertinent information available to management as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018. Although management is not aware of any factors that would significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively revalued for purposes of these financial statements since that date and current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented herein. The following tables set forth the Company’s financial and nonfinancial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value, on a recurring basis, as of March 31, 2019 by level in the fair value hierarchy.

Netting among positions classified within the same level is included in that level. Realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in ‘principal gains, net’, ‘interest income’, and ‘cost of sales of physical commodities’ in the condensed consolidated income statements. Additional disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments that are not carried on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value Many, but not all, of the financial instruments that the Company holds are recorded at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following represents financial instruments in which the ending balance at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 was not carried at fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets: Short-term financial instruments : The carrying value of short-term financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, cash segregated under federal and other regulations, securities purchased under agreements to re-sell and securities sold under agreements to re-purchase, and securities borrowed and loaned are recorded at amounts that approximate the fair value of these instruments due to their short-term nature and level of collateralization. These financial instruments generally expose the Company to limited credit risk and have no stated maturities or have short-term maturities and carry interest rates that approximate market rates. Under the fair value hierarchy, cash and cash equivalents and cash segregated under federal and other regulations are classified as Level 1. Securities purchased under agreements to re-sell and securities sold under agreements to re-purchase, and securities borrowed and loaned are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy as they are generally overnight or short-term in nature and are collateralized by equity securities, U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. government agency obligations, agency mortgage-backed obligations, and asset-backed obligations. Receivables and other assets : Receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations, and counterparties, receivables from clients, net, notes receivables, and certain other assets are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. Payables : Payables to clients and payables to brokers-dealers, clearing organizations, and counterparties are recorded at amounts that approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. Lenders under loans : Payables to lenders under loans carry variable rates of interest and are relatively short-term in duration and, thus, approximate fair value and are classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. Term Loan : The term loan carries a variable rate of interest and thus approximates fair value and is classified as Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Concentrations of Credit Risk [Abstract]
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block]	Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk and Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company is party to certain financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of its business. The Company has sold financial instruments that it does not currently own and will therefore be obliged to purchase such financial instruments at a future date. The Company has recorded these obligations in the condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 at the fair values of the related financial instruments. The Company will incur losses if the fair value of the underlying financial instruments increases subsequent to March 31, 2019 . The total financial instruments sold, not yet purchased of $956.7 and $866.5 as of March 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018 , respectively, includes $201.4 and $193.4 for derivative contracts, respectively, which represented a liability to the Company based on their fair values as of March 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018 . Derivatives The Company utilizes derivative products in its trading capacity as a dealer in order to satisfy client needs and mitigate risk. The Company manages risks from both derivatives and non-derivative cash instruments on a consolidated basis. The risks of derivatives should not be viewed in isolation, but in aggregate with the Company’s other trading activities. The majority of the Company’s derivative positions are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets in ‘Deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties’, ‘Financial instruments owned, at fair value’, ‘Financial instruments sold, not yet purchased, at fair value’ and ‘Payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties’. Listed below are the fair values of the Company’s derivative assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 . Assets represent net unrealized gains and liabilities represent net unrealized losses. March 31, 2019 September 30, 2018 (in millions) Assets (1) Liabilities (1) Assets (1) Liabilities (1) Derivative contracts not accounted for as hedges: Exchange-traded commodity derivatives $ 1,360.9 $ 1,312.7 $ 2,455.7 $ 2,499.3 OTC commodity derivatives 83.1 123.0 207.0 369.9 Exchange-traded foreign exchange derivatives 62.0 57.3 49.8 37.2 OTC foreign exchange derivatives 373.0 353.5 302.5 303.9 Exchange-traded interest rate derivatives 592.5 693.1 449.3 478.7 OTC interest rate derivatives 20.9 22.9 24.8 25.9 Exchange-traded equity index derivatives 1,539.7 1,439.8 4,541.8 4,794.0 TBA and forward settling securities 12.1 16.7 5.0 2.1 Gross fair value of derivative contracts 4,044.2 4,019.0 8,035.9 8,511.0 Impact of netting and collateral (3,857.1 ) (3,801.8 ) (8,118.5 ) (8,317.6 ) Total fair value included in 'Deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations, and counterparties' $ (16.6 ) $ (268.7 ) Total fair value included in 'Financial instruments owned, at fair value $ 203.7 $ 186.1 Total fair value included in 'Payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties $ 15.8 $ — Fair value included in 'Financial instruments sold, not yet purchased, at fair value' $ 201.4 $ 193.4 (1) As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , the Company’s derivative contract volume for open positions were approximately 11.0 million and 10.6 million contracts, respectively. The Company’s derivative contracts are principally held in its Commercial Hedging and Clearing and Execution Services segments. The Company assists its Commercial Hedging segment clients in protecting the value of their future production by entering into option or forward agreements with them on an OTC basis. The Company also provides its Commercial Hedging segment clients with option products, including combinations of buying and selling puts and calls. The Company mitigates its risk by offsetting the client’s transaction simultaneously with one of the Company’s trading counterparties or with a similar but not identical exchange-traded position. The risk mitigation of these offsetting trades is not within the documented hedging designation requirements of the Derivatives and Hedging Topic of the ASC. These derivative contracts are traded along with cash transactions because of the integrated nature of the markets for these products. The Company manages the risks associated with derivatives on an aggregate basis along with the risks associated with its proprietary trading and market-making activities in cash instruments as part of its firm-wide risk management policies. In particular, the risks related to derivative positions may be partially offset by inventory, unrealized gains in inventory or cash collateral paid or received. The Company has derivative instruments, which consist of mortgage-backed TBA securities and forward settling transactions that are used to manage risk exposures in the trading inventory of the Company’s domestic institutional fixed income business. The fair value on these transactions are recorded in deposits with and receivables from or payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on securities and derivative transactions are reflected in ‘principal gains, net’. As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , these transactions are summarized as follows: March 31, 2019 September 30, 2018 (in millions) Gain / (Loss) Notional Amounts Gain / (Loss) Notional Amounts Unrealized gain on TBA securities purchased within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ 7.1 $ 1,397.6 $ 1.2 $ 721.5 Unrealized loss on TBA securities purchased within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ (0.4 ) $ 451.8 $ (0.6 ) $ 293.2 Unrealized gain on TBA securities sold within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ — $ — $ 3.2 $ (1,099.5 ) Unrealized gain on TBA securities sold within payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ 0.5 $ (425.4 ) $ — $ — Unrealized loss on TBA securities sold within payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ (13.7 ) $ (2,260.8 ) $ — $ — Unrealized loss on TBA securities sold within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ — $ — $ (1.5 ) $ (812.7 ) Unrealized gain on forward settling securities purchased within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ 4.5 1,258.1 $ 0.5 $ 614.3 Unrealized loss on forward settling securities sold within payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ (2.6 ) (1,172.7 ) $ — $ — Unrealized gain on forward settling securities sold within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ — — $ 0.1 $ (427.2 ) (1) The notional amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company's involvement in TBA and forward settling securities and do not represent risk of loss due to counterparty non-performance. The following table sets forth the Company’s gains (losses) related to derivative financial instruments for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 in accordance with the Derivatives and Hedging Topic of the ASC. The net gains set forth below are included in ‘Cost of sales of physical commodities’ and ‘principal gains, net’ in the condensed consolidated income statements. Three Months Ended March 31, Six Months Ended March 31, (in millions) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Commodities $ 36.0 $ 12.3 $ 44.1 $ 33.8 Foreign exchange 1.8 2.5 3.7 4.8 Equity 0.7 — (2.6 ) — Interest rate — 0.2 — 0.6 TBA and forward settling securities 10.6 10.7 1.3 10.3 Net gains from derivative contracts $ 49.1 $ 25.7 $ 46.5 $ 49.5 Credit Risk In the normal course of business, the Company purchases and sells financial instruments, commodities and foreign currencies as either a principal or agent on behalf of its clients. If either the client or counterparty fails to perform, the Company may be required to discharge the obligations of the nonperforming party. In such circumstances, the Company may sustain a loss if the fair value of the financial instrument, commodity, or foreign currency is different from the contract value of the transaction. The majority of the Company’s transactions and, consequently, the concentration of its credit exposure are with commodity exchanges, clients, broker-dealers and other financial institutions. These activities primarily involve collateralized and uncollateralized arrangements and may result in credit exposure in the event that a counterparty fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s exposure to credit risk can be directly impacted by volatile financial markets, which may impair the ability of counterparties to satisfy their contractual obligations. The Company seeks to control its credit risk through a variety of reporting and control procedures, including establishing credit and/or position limits based upon a review of the counterparties’ financial condition and credit ratings. The Company monitors collateral levels on a daily basis for compliance with regulatory and internal guidelines and requests changes in collateral levels as appropriate. The Company is a party to financial instruments in the normal course of its business through client and proprietary trading accounts in exchange-traded and OTC derivative instruments. These instruments are primarily the result of the execution of orders for commodity futures, options on futures, OTC swaps and options and spot and forward foreign currency contracts on behalf of its clients, substantially all of which are transacted on a margin basis. Such transactions may expose the Company to significant credit risk in the event margin requirements are not sufficient to fully cover losses which clients may incur. The Company controls the risks associated with these transactions by requiring clients to maintain margin deposits in compliance with individual exchange regulations and internal guidelines. The Company monitors required margin levels daily, and therefore may require clients to deposit additional collateral or reduce positions when necessary. The Company also establishes credit limits for clients, which are monitored daily. The Company evaluates each client’s creditworthiness on a case by case basis. Clearing, financing, and settlement activities may require the Company to maintain funds with or pledge securities as collateral with other financial institutions. Generally, these exposures to both clients and exchanges are subject to master netting, or client agreements, which reduce the exposure to the Company by permitting receivables and payables with such clients to be offset in the event of a client default. Management believes that the margin deposits held as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 were adequate to minimize the risk of material loss that could be created by positions held at that time. Additionally, the Company monitors collateral fair value on a daily basis and adjusts collateral levels in the event of excess market exposure. Generally, these exposures to both clients and counterparties are subject to master netting or client agreements which reduce the exposure to the Company. Derivative financial instruments involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet market risk whereby changes in the fair values of underlying financial instruments may result in changes in the fair value of the financial instruments in excess of the amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Exposure to market risk is influenced by a number of factors, including the relationships between the financial instruments and the Company’s positions, as well as the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the financial instruments are traded. The principal risk components of financial instruments include, among other things, interest rate volatility, the duration of the underlying instruments and changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company attempts to manage its exposure to market risk through various techniques. Aggregate market limits have been established and market risk measures are routinely monitored against these limits.

Failure to comply with these covenants could result in the debt becoming payable on demand. As of March 31, 2019 , the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under its credit facilities.

Commodity and Other Repurchase Agreements [Abstract]
Commodity and Other Repurchase Agreements and Collateralized Transactions	Securities and Commodity Financing Transactions The Company’s outstanding notes receivable in connection with repurchase agreements for agricultural and energy commodities, whereby the clients sell to the Company certain commodity inventory and agree to repurchase the commodity inventory at a future date at a fixed price were $0.1 million and $1.9 million as of March 31, 2019 and September 30 2018, respectively. The Company enters into securities purchased under agreements to resell, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, securities borrowed and securities loaned transactions to, among other things, finance financial instruments, acquire securities to cover short positions, acquire securities for settlement, and to accommodate counterparties’ needs. These agreements are recorded as collateralized financings at their contractual amounts plus accrued interest. The related interest is recorded in the condensed consolidated income statements as interest income or interest expense, as applicable. In connection with these agreements and transactions, it is the policy of the Company to receive or pledge cash or securities to adequately collateralize such agreements and transactions in accordance with general industry guidelines and practices. The value of the collateral is valued daily and the Company may require counterparties to deposit additional collateral or return collateral pledged, when appropriate. The carrying amounts of these agreements and transactions approximate fair value due to their short-term nature and the level of collateralization. The Company pledges financial instruments owned to collateralize repurchase agreements. At March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , financial instruments owned, at fair value of $285.5 million and $123.0 million , respectively, were pledged as collateral under repurchase agreements. The counterparty has the right to repledge the collateral in connection with these transactions. These financial instruments owned have been pledged as collateral and have been parenthetically disclosed on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In addition, as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , the Company pledged financial instruments owned, at fair value of $1,243.2 million and $1,481.1 million , respectively, and securities received under reverse repurchase agreements of $901.3 million and $369.8 million , respectively, to cover collateral requirements for tri-party repurchase agreements. For these securities, the counterparties do not have the right to sell or repledge the collateral and, therefore, they have not been parenthetically disclosed on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company also has repledged securities borrowed and client securities held under custodial clearing arrangements to collateralize securities loaned agreements with a fair value of $1,352.8 million and $267.9 million as of March 31, 2019 , and September 30, 2018 , respectively. Additionally, the Company has also pledged financial instruments owned with a fair value of $9.1 million and $27.1 million as of March 31, 2019 , and September 30, 2018 , respectively, to collateralize uncommitted loan facilities with certain banks as discussed further in Note 10 . At March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, the Company had accepted collateral that it is permitted by contract to sell or repledge. This collateral consists primarily of securities received in reverse repurchase agreements, securities borrowed agreements, and margin securities held on behalf of correspondent brokers. The fair value of such collateral at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , was $2,746.5 and $1,294.8 million , respectively, of which $441.1 million and $473.9 million , respectively, was used to cover securities sold short which are recorded in financial instruments sold, not yet purchased on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. In the normal course of business, this collateral is used by the Company to cover financial instruments sold, not yet purchased, to obtain financing in the form of repurchase agreements or bank loans, and to meet counterparties’ needs under lending arrangements. The following tables provide the contractual maturities of gross obligations under repurchase and securities lending agreements as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 (in millions): March 31, 2019 Overnight and Open Less than 30 Days 30-90 Days Over 90 Days Total Securities sold under agreements to repurchase $ 1,179.3 $ 847.4 $ 338.0 $ 20.0 $ 2,384.7 Securities loaned 1,376.5 — — — 1,376.5 Gross amount of secured financing $ 2,555.8 $ 847.4 $ 338.0 $ 20.0 $ 3,761.2 September 30, 2018 Overnight and Open Less than 30 Days 30-90 Days Over 90 Days Total Securities sold under agreements to repurchase $ 934.9 $ 661.3 $ 340.5 $ — $ 1,936.7 Securities loaned 277.9 — — — 277.9 Gross amount of secured financing $ 1,212.8 $ 661.3 $ 340.5 $ — $ 2,214.6 The following table provides the underlying collateral types of the gross obligations under repurchase and securities lending agreements as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 (in millions): Securities sold under agreements to repurchase March 31, 2019 September 30, 2018 U.S. Treasury obligations $ 122.6 $ 39.6 U.S. government agency obligations 372.8 461.7 Asset-backed obligations 86.5 50.0 Agency mortgage-backed obligations 1,802.8 1,385.4 Total securities sold under agreement to repurchase 2,384.7 1,936.7 Securities loaned Equity securities 1,376.5 277.9 Total securities loaned 1,376.5 277.9 Gross amount of secured financing $ 3,761.2 $ 2,214.6

Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block]	Commitments and Contingencies Contingencies During the week ended November 16, 2018, balances in approximately 300 accounts of the FCM division of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, INTL FCStone Financial Inc., declined below required maintenance margin levels, primarily as a result of significant and unexpected price fluctuations in the natural gas markets. All positions in these accounts, which were managed by OptionSellers.com Inc. (“OptionSellers”), an independent Commodity Trading Advisor (“CTA”), were liquidated in accordance with the INTL FCStone Financial Inc.’s client agreements and obligations under market regulation standards. A CTA is registered with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) and a member of, and subject to audit by, the National Futures Association (“NFA”). OptionSellers is registered under a CFTC Rule 4.7 exemption for “qualified eligible persons,” which requires the account holders authorizing OptionSellers to act as their CTA to meet or exceed certain minimum financial requirements. OptionSellers, in its role as a CTA, had been granted by each of its clients full discretionary authority to manage the trading in the client accounts, while INTL FCStone Financial Inc. acted solely as the clearing firm in its role as the FCM. INTL FCStone Financial Inc.’s client agreements hold account holders liable for all losses in their accounts and obligate the account holders to reimburse INTL FCStone Financial for any account deficits in their accounts. As of March 31, 2019, the aggregate receivable from these client accounts, net of collections and other allowable deductions, was $29.4 million , with no individual account receivable exceeding $1.4 million . INTL FCStone Financial Inc. continues to pursue collection of these receivables and intends both to enforce and to defend its rights aggressively, and to claim interest and costs of collection where applicable. INTL FCStone Financial Inc. has been named in arbitrations brought by clients seeking damages relating to the trading losses in these accounts. The Company believes that such cases are without merit and intend to defend them vigorously. At the same time, the Company has initiated numerous arbitration proceedings against clients to recover deficit balances in their accounts. The Company believes it has a valid claim against its clients, based on the express language of the customer contracts and legal precedent, and intends to pursue collection of these claims vigorously. The Company has done an assessment of the collectability of these accounts, considered the status of arbitration proceedings, and has concluded that it does not have a sufficient basis to record an allowance against these uncollected balances. As the Company moves through the collection and arbitration processes and additional information becomes available, the Company will continue to consider the need for an allowance against the carrying value of these uncollected balances. Depending on future collections and arbitration proceedings, any provisions for bad debts and actual losses ultimately may or may not be material to the Company’s financial results. Currently, the Company does not believe that any potential losses related to this matter would impact its ability to comply with its ongoing liquidity, capital, and regulatory requirements. Legal Proceedings From time to time and in the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in various legal actions and proceedings, including tort claims, contractual disputes, employment matters, workers’ compensation claims and collections. The Company carries insurance that provides protection against certain types of claims, up to the policy limits of the insurance. As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , the condensed consolidated balance sheets include loss contingency accruals which are not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s financial position or liquidity. In the opinion of management, possible exposure from loss contingencies in excess of the amounts accrued, is not likely to be material to the Company’s earnings, financial position or liquidity. There have been no material changes to the legal actions and proceedings compared to September 30, 2018. Contractual Commitments Self-Insurance The Company self-insures its costs related to medical and dental claims. The Company is self-insured, up to a stop loss amount, for eligible participating employees and retirees, and for qualified dependent medical and dental claims, subject to deductibles and limitations. As of March 31, 2019 , the Company had $0.8 million accrued for self-insured medical and dental claims included in ‘accounts payable and other liabilities’ in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block]	Income Taxes The income tax provision for interim periods is comprised of tax on ordinary income (loss) provided at the most recent estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for the tax effect of discrete items. Management uses an estimated annual effective tax rate based on the forecasted pretax income (loss) and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state and local taxes, global intangible low taxed income, a bargain purchase gain, and differing statutory tax rates applied to the income of non-U.S. subsidiaries. The Company records the tax effect of certain discrete items, including the effects of changes in tax laws, tax rates and adjustments with respect to valuation allowances or other unusual or nonrecurring tax adjustments, in the interim period in which they occur, as an addition to, or reduction from, the income tax provision, rather than being included in the estimated effective annual income tax rate. In addition, jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year or a year-to-date loss where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the estimated annual effective income tax rate. The Company is required to assess its deferred tax assets and the need for a valuation allowance at each reporting period. This assessment requires judgment on the part of management with respect to benefits that may be realized. The Company will record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is considered more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed and enacted into law H.R. 1, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“the Tax Reform”). Among the significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Tax Reform lowered the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% , effective January 1, 2018. The Company will compute its income tax expense (benefit) for the September 30, 2019 tax year using a U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% . The Company computed income tax expense for the year ended September 30, 2018 using a U.S. statutory tax rate of 24.5% . The Tax Reform imposed a one-time mandatory repatriation transition tax on previously untaxed accumulated and current earnings and profits (“E&P”) of certain foreign subsidiaries. The Tax Reform also establishes new tax laws that will affect the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019, including, but not limited to, (1) elimination of the corporate alternative minimum tax, (2) a new provision designed to tax global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”), (3) limitations on the utilization of net operating losses incurred in tax years beginning after September 30, 2018 to 80% of taxable income per tax year, (4) the creation of the base erosion anti-abuse tax (“BEAT”), (5) a general elimination of U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries, and (6) limitations on the deductibility of interest expense and certain executive compensation. The Company made the policy election to treat GILTI as a current period expense when incurred. The estimated impact of GILTI is included in the forecasted effective tax rate and increases the effective rate by approximately 1% . The SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Reform. SAB 118 provides a provisional measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Reform enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740, Income Taxes. The Company’s income tax accounting provisional measurement period for the Tax Reform concluded during the three months ended December 31, 2018 with no adjustments to the provisional amounts previously recorded. For the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded tax expense of $8.9 million related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the information available. As a result of additional information becoming available after December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a benefit of $0.3 million during the remainder of fiscal 2018 related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and as of September 30, 2018, the accounting for the remeasurement of the deferred tax assets and liabilities was complete. The Tax Reform also included a one-time mandatory repatriation transition tax on previously untaxed accumulated and current E&P of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. To determine the amount of the transition tax, the Company determined, in addition to other factors, the amount of post 1986 E&P of the relevant subsidiaries, as well as the amount of non-U.S. income taxes paid on such earnings. The Company made a reasonable estimate of the transition tax and recorded a provisional transition tax obligation of $12.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2017. The Company recorded benefits of $0.7 million and $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and the remainder of fiscal 2018, respectively, due to revised E&P computations, refinement of the net operating loss carryforward available, and revised non-US income taxes paid. As of December 31, 2018, the accounting for the one-time mandatory repatriation transition tax on previously untaxed accumulated and current E&P of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is complete. Current and Prior Period Tax Expense Income tax expense of $7.5 million and $6.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and income tax expense of $13.7 million and $32.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, reflect estimated federal, foreign, state and local taxes. Due to Tax Reform, the Company recorded discrete expense of $20.1 million during the six months ended March 31, 2018. This consists of expense of $20.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2017, and benefit of $0.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018. Tax expense, excluding the discrete expense related to the Tax Reform, was $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and $12.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2018. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , the Company’s effective tax rate was 24% and 23% , respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the effective rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to U.S. state and local taxes, GILTI, and US and foreign permanent differences. The Company’s effective tax rate decreased 0.1% and 0.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, due to excess tax benefits on share-based compensation. For the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , the Company’s effective tax rate was 25% and 67% , respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2018, the discrete expense of $20.1 million related to Tax Reform, increased the effective tax rate by 42% . The effective rate for the six months ended March 31, 2018 was 25% , excluding the impacts of Tax Reform. The Company’s effective tax rate decreased 0.1% and 0.6% for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, due to excess tax benefits on share-based compensation. Deferred income tax balances reflect the effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases and are stated at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered. As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , the Company has net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign income tax purposes of $9.4 million , net of valuation allowances, which are available to offset future taxable income in these jurisdictions. The state and local net operating loss carryforwards of $5.7 million , net of valuation allowance, begin to expire after September 2020. INTL Asia Pte. Ltd. has a Singapore net operating loss carryforward of $2.9 million . This Singapore net operating loss has an indefinite carryforward and, in the judgment of management, is more likely than not to be realized. As a result of Tax Reform, the alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) credit carryforward deferred tax asset has been reclassified to income taxes receivable. The Company can continue to utilize AMT credits to offset regular income tax liability in fiscal years 2019 through 2021. Any remaining amount is fully refundable by fiscal year 2022. In fiscal 2018, the Company generated $6.5 million in foreign tax credit carryforwards as part of the mandatory repatriation transition tax. These credits expire in fiscal year 2028. In the judgment of management, the Company believes that sufficient taxable income will be earned to utilize the foreign tax credit carryforwards within 10 years. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 was $3.5 million . The valuation allowances as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 were primarily related to U.S., state and local net operating loss carryforwards and foreign net operating loss carryforwards that, in the judgment of management, are not more likely than not to be realized. When evaluating if U.S. federal, state, and local deferred taxes are realizable, the Company considers when deferred tax liabilities are scheduled to reverse as well as deferred tax liabilities associated with unrealized gains in securities which the Company could sell, if necessary. Furthermore, the Company considers its ability to implement business and tax planning strategies that would allow the remaining U.S. federal, state, and local deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowances, to be realized in less than 10 years. Based on the current and projected profitability of the Company, as well as tax planning strategies that can be implemented, management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the tax benefit of the deferred tax assets, net of the existing valuation allowances, in the future. As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , the Company has accumulated undistributed earnings generated by its foreign subsidiaries of approximately $378.8 million and $354.7 million , respectively. The Company recognized the mandatory repatriation tax related to these undistributed earnings as part of the Tax Reform and, as a result, repatriation of these amounts would not be subject to additional U.S. federal income tax but may be subject to applicable foreign withholding and state taxes in the relevant jurisdictions. T he Company does not intend to distribute earnings in a taxable manner, and therefore intends to limit distributions to earnings previously taxed in the U.S., or earnings that would qualify for the 100 percent dividends received deduction provided for in the Tax Reform Act, and earnings that would not result in any significant foreign taxes. The Company has repatriated $13 million during fiscal 2019 of earnings previously taxed in the U.S. resulting in no significant taxes. Therefore, the Company has not recognized a deferred tax liability on its investment in foreign subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns with the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. The Company has open tax years ranging from September 30, 2010 through September 30, 2018 with U.S. federal and state and local taxing authorities. The Company is currently under examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service for the 2016 fiscal tax year; however, no additional tax liability is expected. In the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), the Company has open tax years ending September 30, 2017 to September 30, 2018. In Brazil, the Company has open tax years ranging from December 31, 2013 through December 31, 2018. In Argentina, the Company has open tax years ranging from September 30, 2011 to September 30, 2018. In Singapore, the Company has open tax years ranging from September 30, 2014 to September 30, 2018.

Acquisitions (Notes) [Abstract]
Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block]	Note 17 - Acquisitions GMP Securities LLC On December 11, 2018 the Company executed a stock purchase agreement with GMP International Holdings Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Canada-based GMP Capital Inc., to acquire 100% its U.S.-based broker-dealer subsidiary, GMP Securities LLC (“GMP”), formerly known as Miller Tabak Securities, LLC, an independent, SEC-registered broker-dealer and FINRA member. GMP has an institutional fixed-income trading business which deals in high yield, convertible and emerging market debt and makes markets in certain equity securities. This transaction also involved the purchase of GMP’s U.S.-based parent. This acquisition allows the Company to expand its fixed income product offerings to clients and adds over 2,400 new institutional clients who can benefit from the Company’s full suite of financial services. The transaction was subject to regulatory approval which was obtained in January 2019 with the acquisition closing on January 14, 2019. The aggregate cash purchase price of $8.2 million for all of the outstanding shares of GMP and its U.S.-based parent was equal to the final net tangible book value determined as of the acquisition date less $2.0 million. The net fair value of the assets acquired exceeded the fair value of the cash consideration transferred as of the acquisition date and the Company correspondingly recorded a bargain purchase gain of $5.4 million for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, which is presented within ‘other gain’ in the condensed consolidated income statements. The Company believes the transaction resulted in a bargain purchase gain due to the Company’s ability to incorporate these business activities into its existing business structure, and its ability to utilize certain deferred tax assets, including net operating loss carryforwards, and other assets while operating the business that may not have been likely to be realized by the seller nor was contemplated in the purchase price. The legal name of GMP was changed to INTL FCStone Credit Trading, LLC (“IFT”) subsequent to the closing date. The post-acquisition results of IFT have been included in the Company’s condensed consolidated income statements for the three and six months ended March 31, 2019.

Segment Analysis [Abstract]
Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block]	Segment Analysis The Company reports its operating segments based on services provided to clients. The Company’s business activities are managed as operating segments and organized into reportable segments as follows: • Commercial Hedging (includes components Financial Agricultural (Ag) & Energy and LME Metals) • Global Payments • Securities (includes components Equity Capital Markets, Debt Capital Markets and Asset Management) • Physical Commodities (includes components Precious Metals and Physical Ag & Energy) • Clearing and Execution Services (includes components Exchange-traded Futures & Options, FX Prime Brokerage, Correspondent Clearing, Independent Wealth Management, and Derivative Voice Brokerage) The total revenues reported combine gross revenues for the physical commodities business for subsidiaries that are not broker-dealers and net revenues for all other businesses. In order to reflect the way that the Company’s management views the results, the table below also reflects the segment contribution to ‘operating revenues’, which is shown on the face of the condensed consolidated income statements and which is calculated by deducting physical commodities cost of sales from total revenues. Segment data includes the profitability measure of net contribution by segment. Net contribution is one of the key measures used by management to assess the performance of each segment and for decisions regarding the allocation of the Company’s resources. Net contribution is calculated as revenue less direct cost of sales, transaction-based clearing expenses, variable compensation, introducing broker commissions, and interest expense. Variable compensation paid to risk management consultants/traders generally represents a fixed percentage of revenues generated, and in some cases, revenues generated less transaction-based clearing charges, base salaries and an overhead allocation. Segment data also includes segment income which is calculated as net contribution less non-variable direct expenses of the segment. These non-variable direct expenses include trader base compensation and benefits, operational employee compensation and benefits, communication and data services, business development, professional fees, bad debt expense and other direct expenses. Inter-segment revenues, charges, receivables and payables are eliminated upon consolidation, except revenues and costs related to foreign currency transactions undertaken on an arm’s length basis by the foreign exchange trading business for the securities business. The foreign exchange trading business competes for this business as it does any other business. If its rates are not competitive, the securities businesses buy or sell their foreign currency through other market counterparties. On a recurring basis, the Company sweeps excess cash from certain U.S. operating segments to a centralized corporate treasury function in exchange for an intercompany receivable asset. The intercompany receivable asset is eliminated during consolidation, and therefore this practice may impact reported total assets between segments. Information for the reportable segments is shown in accordance with the Segment Reporting Topic of the ASC as follows Three Months Ended March 31, Six Months Ended March 31, (in millions) 2019 2018 2019 2018 Total revenues: Commercial Hedging $ 80.6 $ 78.3 $ 140.4 $ 139.8 Global Payments 27.4 23.4 57.1 48.0 Securities 72.6 55.5 141.6 98.5 Physical Commodities 6,940.9 6,262.3 13,242.7 13,978.9 Clearing and Execution Services 73.6 88.0 168.8 160.2 Corporate unallocated (2.9 ) (0.5 ) (6.2 ) 0.2 Total $ 7,192.2 $ 6,507.0 $ 13,744.4 $ 14,425.6 Operating revenues (loss): Commercial Hedging $ 80.6 $ 78.3 $ 140.4 $ 139.8 Global Payments 27.4 23.4 57.1 48.0 Securities 72.6 55.5 141.6 98.5 Physical Commodities 19.8 15.5 34.1 26.1 Clearing and Execution Services 73.6 88.0 168.8 160.2 Corporate unallocated (2.9 ) (0.5 ) (6.2 ) 0.2 Total $ 271.1 $ 260.2 $ 535.8 $ 472.8 Net operating revenues (loss): Commercial Hedging $ 65.8 $ 61.9 $ 111.1 $ 111.0 Global Payments 25.8 21.9 54.2 44.9 Securities 32.0 27.6 64.1 51.1 Physical Commodities 15.1 12.5 25.5 20.9 Clearing and Execution Services 31.0 31.8 68.5 59.2 Corporate unallocated (4.5 ) (1.4 ) (9.2 ) (2.5 ) Total $ 165.2 $ 154.3 $ 314.2 $ 284.6 Net contribution: (Revenues less cost of sales of physical commodities, transaction-based clearing expenses, variable compensation, introducing broker commissions and interest expense) Commercial Hedging $ 49.3 $ 44.7 $ 79.9 $ 81.2 Global Payments 21.0 17.6 44.1 36.0 Securities 20.1 20.3 41.9 38.1 Physical Commodities 11.5 9.4 18.6 15.0 Clearing and Execution Services 23.4 23.9 53.1 44.4 Total $ 125.3 $ 115.9 $ 237.6 $ 214.7 Segment income: (Net contribution less non-variable direct segment costs) Commercial Hedging $ 30.2 $ 27.6 $ 43.5 $ 48.7 Global Payments 15.8 13.5 34.4 28.1 Securities 11.8 12.8 27.8 23.8 Physical Commodities 7.8 5.6 13.7 6.7 Clearing and Execution Services 11.6 12.7 29.3 23.2 Total $ 77.2 $ 72.2 $ 148.7 $ 130.5 Reconciliation of segment income to income before tax: Segment income $ 77.2 $ 72.2 $ 148.7 $ 130.5 Net costs not allocated to operating segments 51.7 42.7 98.8 82.4 Other gain 5.4 — 5.4 — Income before tax $ 30.9 $ 29.5 $ 55.3 $ 48.1 (in millions) As of March 31, 2019 As of September 30, 2018 Total assets: Commercial Hedging $ 1,704.7 $ 1,935.7 Global Payments 234.4 206.6 Securities 5,150.0 3,058.2 Physical Commodities 406.2 413.7 Clearing and Execution Services 1,773.1 2,109.9 Corporate unallocated 139.3 100.6 Total $ 9,407.7 $ 7,824.7

Subsequent Events [Text Block]	Note 19 – Subsequent Event s On March 13, 2019, the Company’s subsidiary INTL FCStone (Netherlands) B.V. executed a sale and purchase agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of CoinInvest GmbH and European Precious Metal Trading GmbH. This transaction was effective on the closing date of April 1, 2019 (“closing date”). Through the websites coininvest.com and silver-to-go.com, CoinInvest GmbH and European Precious Metal Trading GmbH are leading European online providers of gold, silver, platinum, and palladium products to private individuals, institutional investors, and financial advisors. The addition of CoinInvest GmbH and European Precious Metal Trading GmbH to the Company’s global product suite expands its offering, providing clients the ability to purchase physical gold and other precious metals, in multiple forms, and in denominations of their choice, to add to their investment portfolios. On the closing date, the Company paid preliminary cash consideration for the acquisition of €19.4 million , or approximately $21.8 million, which is equal to the estimated net tangible book value of the acquired entities as of December 31, 2018 (“effective date”), plus a premium of €6.5 million and €10.0 million for the purchase of shareholders loans outstanding with the acquired entities. The preliminary purchase price is subject to adjustment based upon the final purchase price calculations, as defined in the agreement, including an adjustment for the profits or losses generated by the acquired entities from the effective date to the closing date. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is not yet complete. On March 19, 2019, the Company’s subsidiary INTL FCStone Pte Ltd executed an asset purchase agreement to acquire the futures and options brokerage and clearing business of UOB Bullion and Futures Limited, a subsidiary of United Overseas Bank Limited. Closing is conditional upon receiving regulatory approval by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (“MAS”). The addition of the Asian-focused futures and options brokerage and clearing business to the INTL FCStone group gives the Company critical mass in its regional capabilities, providing access to a solid and reputable client base, and enhances the Company’s global product offering out of Singapore. The purchase price for the acquired assets is $5.0 million of which $2.5 million was due upon the execution of the asset purchase agreement and is included in ‘Other assets’ on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2019. The remaining $2.5 million is due to the seller upon closing of the acquisition, which is expected to occur during the 2019 calendar year upon receiving approval from the MAS.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation and Recently Issued Accounting Standards (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Mar. 31, 2019
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation [Abstract]
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018 , which has been derived from the audited consolidated balance sheet of September 30, 2018 , and the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented have been reflected as required by Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 filed with the SEC.
Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]	These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of INTL FCStone Inc. and all other entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Fiscal Period, Policy [Policy Text Block]	The Company’s fiscal year end is September 30, and the fiscal quarters end on December 31, March 31, June 30 and September 30. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to fiscal years and fiscal interim periods.
Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]	The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The most significant of these estimates and assumptions relate to fair value measurement for financial instruments and investments, revenue recognition, the provision for bad debts, valuation of inventories, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, incomes taxes, and contingencies. Although these and other estimates and assumptions are based on the best available information, actual results could be materially different from these estimates.
Reclassification, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Reclassifications During the three and six months ended March 31, 2019, the Company reclassified certain brokerage related revenues for which the Company earns commissions on trading activity in the capacity of an agent. In performing this reclassification, the Company has made a retrospective adjustment to the condensed consolidated income statements for the three and six months ended March 31, 2018. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2018, brokerage related revenues of $9.2 million and $17.9 million , respectively, were reclassified from ‘trading gains, net’ to ‘commissions and clearing fees’. Additionally, the Company has renamed the line item ‘trading gains, net’ to ‘principal gains, net’ on the condensed consolidated income statements in order to reflect the fact that these revenue streams are earned from trading financial instruments in the capacity of a principal and in order to properly segregate revenues earned from contracts with clients in connection with the adoption of the new revenue standard as discussed below.
New Accounting Pronouncement or Change in Accounting Principle, Description	Accounting Standards Adopted On October 1, 2018, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”) using the modified retrospective transition method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of October 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after October 1, 2018, are presented under Topic 606, and amounts prior to October 1, 2018 are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with historical accounting standard, FASB ASC 605, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 605”). The adoption of Topic 606 had no impact to retained earnings as of October 1, 2018, or to revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2018. The Company’s accounting for revenues within the scope of Topic 606 are materially consistent with those accounting principles and practices applied to accounting for revenues under Topic 605. The new revenue recognition model does not apply to revenues associated with financial instruments or contracts, including derivatives and interest income. For further information refer to Note 2 . In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statements of Cash Flows (“Topic 230”): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which clarifies how companies present and classify certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted the provisions of this guidance on October 1, 2018 and the adoption had no impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements. On October 1, 2018, the Company adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-18, Statements of Cash Flows (“Topic 230”): Classification and Presentation of Restricted Cash in the Statements of Cash Flows, using the retrospective transition method. In accordance with the provisions of ASU 2016-18, the Company changed its condensed consolidated statements of cash flows presentation convention to explain the changes in cash and cash equivalents, as well as cash and cash equivalents segregated for regulatory purposes. U.S. Treasury obligations with original or acquired maturities of 90 days or less held with third-party banks or pledged with exchange-clearing organizations representing investments of segregated client funds, or which are held for particular clients in lieu of cash margin, are included in segregated cash equivalents. Purchases, sales, as well as client pledges and redemptions in lieu of cash margin, of U.S. Treasury obligations with original or acquired maturities of greater than 90 days representing investments of segregated client funds are presented as operating uses and sources of cash, respectively, within the operating section of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017- 09, Scope of Modification Accounting (“Topic 718”), which amends the scope of modification accounting for share- based payment arrangements. ASU 2017- 09 provides guidance on the types of changes to the terms or conditions of share- based payment awards to which an entity would be required to apply modification accounting under ASC 718. Specifically, an entity would not apply modification accounting if the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification of the awards are the same immediately before and after the modification. The Company adopted ASU 2017- 09 on October 1, 2018. The adoption of the ASU had no impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Earnings per Share (Policies)

Earnings per Share (Policies)	6 Months Ended

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share, Potentially Dilutive Securities	The Company presents basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) using the two-class method which requires all outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to non-forfeitable dividends and therefore participate in undistributed earnings with common stockholders be included in computing earnings per share. Under the two-class method, net income is reduced by the amount of dividends declared in the period for each class of common stock and participating security. The remaining undistributed earnings are then allocated to common stock and participating securities, based on their respective rights to receive dividends. Restricted stock awards granted to certain employees and directors contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends at the same rate as common stock, and are considered participating securities. Basic EPS has been computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding.

Income Taxes [Abstract]
Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]	Note 16 – Income Taxes The income tax provision for interim periods is comprised of tax on ordinary income (loss) provided at the most recent estimated annual effective tax rate, adjusted for the tax effect of discrete items. Management uses an estimated annual effective tax rate based on the forecasted pretax income (loss) and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which it operates. The Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to state and local taxes, global intangible low taxed income, a bargain purchase gain, and differing statutory tax rates applied to the income of non-U.S. subsidiaries. The Company records the tax effect of certain discrete items, including the effects of changes in tax laws, tax rates and adjustments with respect to valuation allowances or other unusual or nonrecurring tax adjustments, in the interim period in which they occur, as an addition to, or reduction from, the income tax provision, rather than being included in the estimated effective annual income tax rate. In addition, jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year or a year-to-date loss where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the estimated annual effective income tax rate. The Company is required to assess its deferred tax assets and the need for a valuation allowance at each reporting period. This assessment requires judgment on the part of management with respect to benefits that may be realized. The Company will record a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets when it is considered more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed and enacted into law H.R. 1, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“the Tax Reform”). Among the significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Tax Reform lowered the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% , effective January 1, 2018. The Company will compute its income tax expense (benefit) for the September 30, 2019 tax year using a U.S. statutory tax rate of 21% . The Company computed income tax expense for the year ended September 30, 2018 using a U.S. statutory tax rate of 24.5% . The Tax Reform imposed a one-time mandatory repatriation transition tax on previously untaxed accumulated and current earnings and profits (“E&P”) of certain foreign subsidiaries. The Tax Reform also establishes new tax laws that will affect the fiscal year ending September 30, 2019, including, but not limited to, (1) elimination of the corporate alternative minimum tax, (2) a new provision designed to tax global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”), (3) limitations on the utilization of net operating losses incurred in tax years beginning after September 30, 2018 to 80% of taxable income per tax year, (4) the creation of the base erosion anti-abuse tax (“BEAT”), (5) a general elimination of U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries, and (6) limitations on the deductibility of interest expense and certain executive compensation. The Company made the policy election to treat GILTI as a current period expense when incurred. The estimated impact of GILTI is included in the forecasted effective tax rate and increases the effective rate by approximately 1% . The SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for the tax effects of the Tax Reform. SAB 118 provides a provisional measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Reform enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740, Income Taxes. The Company’s income tax accounting provisional measurement period for the Tax Reform concluded during the three months ended December 31, 2018 with no adjustments to the provisional amounts previously recorded. For the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded tax expense of $8.9 million related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the information available. As a result of additional information becoming available after December 31, 2017, the Company recorded a benefit of $0.3 million during the remainder of fiscal 2018 related to the remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and as of September 30, 2018, the accounting for the remeasurement of the deferred tax assets and liabilities was complete. The Tax Reform also included a one-time mandatory repatriation transition tax on previously untaxed accumulated and current E&P of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries. To determine the amount of the transition tax, the Company determined, in addition to other factors, the amount of post 1986 E&P of the relevant subsidiaries, as well as the amount of non-U.S. income taxes paid on such earnings. The Company made a reasonable estimate of the transition tax and recorded a provisional transition tax obligation of $12.0 million in the three months ended December 31, 2017. The Company recorded benefits of $0.7 million and $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and the remainder of fiscal 2018, respectively, due to revised E&P computations, refinement of the net operating loss carryforward available, and revised non-US income taxes paid. As of December 31, 2018, the accounting for the one-time mandatory repatriation transition tax on previously untaxed accumulated and current E&P of certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is complete. Current and Prior Period Tax Expense Income tax expense of $7.5 million and $6.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, and income tax expense of $13.7 million and $32.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, reflect estimated federal, foreign, state and local taxes. Due to Tax Reform, the Company recorded discrete expense of $20.1 million during the six months ended March 31, 2018. This consists of expense of $20.9 million in the three months ended December 31, 2017, and benefit of $0.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018. Tax expense, excluding the discrete expense related to the Tax Reform, was $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, and $12.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2018. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , the Company’s effective tax rate was 24% and 23% , respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the effective rate was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% due to U.S. state and local taxes, GILTI, and US and foreign permanent differences. The Company’s effective tax rate decreased 0.1% and 0.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, due to excess tax benefits on share-based compensation. For the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , the Company’s effective tax rate was 25% and 67% , respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2018, the discrete expense of $20.1 million related to Tax Reform, increased the effective tax rate by 42% . The effective rate for the six months ended March 31, 2018 was 25% , excluding the impacts of Tax Reform. The Company’s effective tax rate decreased 0.1% and 0.6% for the six months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, due to excess tax benefits on share-based compensation. Deferred income tax balances reflect the effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases and are stated at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when taxes are actually paid or recovered. As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , the Company has net operating loss carryforwards for U.S. federal, state, local, and foreign income tax purposes of $9.4 million , net of valuation allowances, which are available to offset future taxable income in these jurisdictions. The state and local net operating loss carryforwards of $5.7 million , net of valuation allowance, begin to expire after September 2020. INTL Asia Pte. Ltd. has a Singapore net operating loss carryforward of $2.9 million . This Singapore net operating loss has an indefinite carryforward and, in the judgment of management, is more likely than not to be realized. As a result of Tax Reform, the alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) credit carryforward deferred tax asset has been reclassified to income taxes receivable. The Company can continue to utilize AMT credits to offset regular income tax liability in fiscal years 2019 through 2021. Any remaining amount is fully refundable by fiscal year 2022. In fiscal 2018, the Company generated $6.5 million in foreign tax credit carryforwards as part of the mandatory repatriation transition tax. These credits expire in fiscal year 2028. In the judgment of management, the Company believes that sufficient taxable income will be earned to utilize the foreign tax credit carryforwards within 10 years. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 was $3.5 million . The valuation allowances as of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 were primarily related to U.S., state and local net operating loss carryforwards and foreign net operating loss carryforwards that, in the judgment of management, are not more likely than not to be realized. When evaluating if U.S. federal, state, and local deferred taxes are realizable, the Company considers when deferred tax liabilities are scheduled to reverse as well as deferred tax liabilities associated with unrealized gains in securities which the Company could sell, if necessary. Furthermore, the Company considers its ability to implement business and tax planning strategies that would allow the remaining U.S. federal, state, and local deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowances, to be realized in less than 10 years. Based on the current and projected profitability of the Company, as well as tax planning strategies that can be implemented, management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the tax benefit of the deferred tax assets, net of the existing valuation allowances, in the future. As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , the Company has accumulated undistributed earnings generated by its foreign subsidiaries of approximately $378.8 million and $354.7 million , respectively. The Company recognized the mandatory repatriation tax related to these undistributed earnings as part of the Tax Reform and, as a result, repatriation of these amounts would not be subject to additional U.S. federal income tax but may be subject to applicable foreign withholding and state taxes in the relevant jurisdictions. T he Company does not intend to distribute earnings in a taxable manner, and therefore intends to limit distributions to earnings previously taxed in the U.S., or earnings that would qualify for the 100 percent dividends received deduction provided for in the Tax Reform Act, and earnings that would not result in any significant foreign taxes. The Company has repatriated $13 million during fiscal 2019 of earnings previously taxed in the U.S. resulting in no significant taxes. Therefore, the Company has not recognized a deferred tax liability on its investment in foreign subsidiaries. The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns with the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state, local and foreign jurisdictions. The Company has open tax years ranging from September 30, 2010 through September 30, 2018 with U.S. federal and state and local taxing authorities. The Company is currently under examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service for the 2016 fiscal tax year; however, no additional tax liability is expected. In the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), the Company has open tax years ending September 30, 2017 to September 30, 2018. In Brazil, the Company has open tax years ranging from December 31, 2013 through December 31, 2018. In Argentina, the Company has open tax years ranging from September 30, 2011 to September 30, 2018. In Singapore, the Company has open tax years ranging from September 30, 2014 to September 30, 2018.

Assets represent net unrealized gains and liabilities represent net unrealized losses.

The Company’s derivative contracts are principally held in its Commercial Hedging and Clearing and Execution Services segments. The Company assists its Commercial Hedging segment clients in protecting the value of their future production by entering into option or forward agreements with them on an OTC basis. The Company also provides its Commercial Hedging segment clients with option products, including combinations of buying and selling puts and calls. The Company mitigates its risk by offsetting the client’s transaction simultaneously with one of the Company’s trading counterparties or with a similar but not identical exchange-traded position. The risk mitigation of these offsetting trades is not within the documented hedging designation requirements of the Derivatives and Hedging Topic of the ASC. These derivative contracts are traded along with cash transactions because of the integrated nature of the markets for these products. The Company manages the risks associated with derivatives on an aggregate basis along with the risks associated with its proprietary trading and market-making activities in cash instruments as part of its firm-wide risk management policies. In particular, the risks related to derivative positions may be partially offset by inventory, unrealized gains in inventory or cash collateral paid or received. The Company has derivative instruments, which consist of mortgage-backed TBA securities and forward settling transactions that are used to manage risk exposures in the trading inventory of the Company’s domestic institutional fixed income business. The fair value on these transactions are recorded in deposits with and receivables from or payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties. Realized and unrealized gains and losses on securities and derivative transactions are reflected in ‘principal gains, net’. As of March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 , these transactions are summarized as follows: March 31, 2019 September 30, 2018 (in millions) Gain / (Loss) Notional Amounts Gain / (Loss) Notional Amounts Unrealized gain on TBA securities purchased within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ 7.1 $ 1,397.6 $ 1.2 $ 721.5 Unrealized loss on TBA securities purchased within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ (0.4 ) $ 451.8 $ (0.6 ) $ 293.2 Unrealized gain on TBA securities sold within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ — $ — $ 3.2 $ (1,099.5 ) Unrealized gain on TBA securities sold within payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ 0.5 $ (425.4 ) $ — $ — Unrealized loss on TBA securities sold within payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ (13.7 ) $ (2,260.8 ) $ — $ — Unrealized loss on TBA securities sold within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ — $ — $ (1.5 ) $ (812.7 ) Unrealized gain on forward settling securities purchased within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ 4.5 1,258.1 $ 0.5 $ 614.3 Unrealized loss on forward settling securities sold within payables to broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ (2.6 ) (1,172.7 ) $ — $ — Unrealized gain on forward settling securities sold within deposits with and receivables from broker-dealers, clearing organizations and counterparties and related notional amounts $ — — $ 0.1 $ (427.2 ) (1) The notional amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company's involvement in TBA and forward settling securities and do not represent risk of loss due to counterparty non-performance.
