Crude (CL) question on fills

I would seriously consider trading the Brent Oil future...it is in the 'middle' daytrade margin wise and has the SAME tick/point value as the CL...

daytrade margins:

mini crude: $1,650
Crude: $3,300
Brent: $2,500

the day range of Brent and Crude is the same and the volume average is this:

Brent: 233K
Crude: 484K...
both the same tick/point value...
 
jay, increasenow is the town idiot. I believe he is quote globalfutures.com margins which are usually very low.

you guys should relax. different orders are used for different purposes. to each his own.

I use limits on planned entry and exit.... only use stop market (market if touched) for my stops.

rarely use markets as I am more of technical trader and I only want to be in a trade at a certain level and i don't want to hover over the screen waiting for it to get there.
 
Quote from jaytrader100:


.....
you are much better off trading cl options..byt you must go to the pit and unless you have a give up with pit brokers..you will get raped on the fills
...



This happened to me-ran me out of energy. I have been waiting for cl options to become electronically accessible but even the vanilla puts\calls have to go through some pirate. Anybody hear anything about this sector coming into present day reality?
