Earn 2 Trade the gauntlet

ok fair enough...

I found this in italics on another forum:

$0.50 commission + $0.02 NFA + $1.18 exchange = $1.70/side = $3.40RT/contract

If you're using Rithmic data feed add an additional $0.25/side/contract. If you use TT, then replace the Rithmic fee with theirs. If you use Finamark it's $0.20 instead of $0.25.

So is it $3.80/RT "all in" if I use Finamark?

Yep! You got it.
 
Currently, $6,380 is the initial margin for the ES. I only worry about holding overnight if I put a daytrade on late in the day, so it will always be the initial margin for me as there will never be a 2nd overnight hold in the same trade.

So I calculate with 3 contracts and I only need to trade once a week...wow? I have two systems that fit this bill. Am I allowed to scalp in my personal account while I trade with you?

We go by the maintenance margin not initial margin, so $5800 for ES. Yes we do not restrict what other accounts you trade.
 
I suppose I should trade full speed in the Gauntlet to garner the best deal. Is it possible to get 20% and 25K? or even 10% and 50K in a funded account right from the beginning?

Helios doesn’t offer over 25k initially but after that you can get much much higher if you’re doing well.

Yeah but you allow 25% DD which is $6,250.00. Shouldn't a trader gauge for 3 contracts?

It’s really up to the trader. I personally would never trade more than 1 contract with 25k.
