I guess I should just ask Advantage or the exchange whether the mini-Dow is FIFO or pro-rata. Either way I should get an edge sometimes. It's a good thing that the simulation is more difficult than real trading because it really doesn't evoke much feeling when i am trading on it. I hope that...

I plan on putting $20k in the account to trade a max of 10 contracts. Of course, I will be trading one lots and only going up to 5 if I see a fantastic trade that must go my way or I'm out. What is bothering me is the high cost per contract. I am going to get a membership, IDEM I think, but...

Of course if you are trading it, you know this. :)

Why did I laugh at this stupid joke? Oiltrader, care to elaborate or am I going to have to go to that website?
