How about, you trade a $5K sim account with 1 contract until you double it to $10K? No resetting, no cheating, only 1 contract per trade. If you get down to $2K, keep going. Don't blow the account on purpose. Once you blow it for real, then you get to start over at $5K again. What do you think?

Yes, ultimately how many dollars I am making should definitely be a part of proving to myself that I am good to go for live trading ES.

Its a great idea.

So, let me add it as condition # 3.

3. I should be able to double the account from 5k to 10k along with other 2 conditions I wrote above, before I will go back to live trading ES.
 
I trade only from my laptop screen, I am going to buy another monitor in next few days. Will keep the papertrader always on that platform. Not having another monitor has always been a big reason for not being able to utilize papertrader properly.

Having papertrader and live system on the same monitor messes up trading/order entry/concentration.

(edit: assumed you meant today only of course, hat not on the menu after 4:15!)

Looks like your hat sandwich went back in the fridge :)
