I don't see that data as an available tool on the platform I'm using but that's interesting info, thanks. You said you don't want to see the low...
I want to enter a market when it bounces off a support level. For example, let's say that support in ES is at 2000 and the current price is...
If the account never has a margin deficit, then the risk is just against the funds deposited.
If only 5 or 10% is being used to cover margin requirements, why even bother with the $10 MM figure? Seems arbitrary. That's a 200% gain to me.

I'm getting sadder reading all of your posts. It depresses me so much that a person could be so hateful and negative.
Thanks for the mindless cliche. My question had to do with the mechanics of the market. It has nothing to do with making or losing money.
Mav88 just does the same thing in every single thread on this site, go back and look at his history. What a complete low life. You are a sad,...
