Well. Call sales rep and ask.
Their risk management is on CQG side and is not accessible by a broker. Regardless their exchange status.
I'd go back to CQG IC if not those margins.
P.S. RCG is not the smallest broker out there.. I dont think they would do that. I sent email to CQG asking if they can change margins but they didnt even reply. I didnt bother to call though.
Someone is feeding you wrong information. CQG has the software to perform the risk analysis of the account, but the parameters and rules (as to what to check for) is being set by your broker. Your FCM is accountable for your risk to the exchange, CQG just provides them the tools to do that.
You need conversation with your broker, ask them to set you up on CQG and work with them to set your risk levels the way it works for them. In most cases they will match your levels on TT with the setup on CQG. If you run into any issues or your broker needs some handholding to do it on CQG call CQG support (1 800-525-1085 in the US, +44 (0) 20-7827-8270 in the UK), they have a group that works with brokers and help them get the accounts setup properly.
