I bet they pay that a month in clearance and trading fees alone to GSEC. But then again I dont know how many guys they have. could be drastically smaller now then few years ago.
The real number could never be calculated. But I think its safe to say that 1 out of a 1000 can actually hack it day in and out till they make it work. 5% maybe obtain scratch status. Which is fucking awesome stand alone by the way. Its that last push from scratch to ++ which is the mind...

Whatever you do, good luck at it.
No. But I cant imagine any software/firm routing to a sim and live account simultaneously. I could be wrong, but TST def does not allow it.
Side by side my friend. Two doms/one trader...lol
Nobody will stop you from trading the combine and your PA at the same time. FYI. I did it, still do.
Its a fun challenge. Worst case you dropped the 165 or whatever and write it off. Best case you got another contract or three to trade with zero downside.
