Quote from Ebo:
The CME Intraday Margin on Nasdaq100 E Minis is $1650/contract and $1850/contract for S & P 500 E minis.
This is for Intraday and it is higher to hold positions overnight.
What broker is it $1000?
Where do you people get this random information from?
Random info? You are clueless. Many firms offer lower intraday margins. You should get your info straight before accusing others of misinformation.
