    ok. Fair enough.

    But I thought CFTC regs had it that minimun on account deposit was 2k before you could initate a futures trade, regardless of the intraday margins offered.

    I tried to get an understanding of this from that firm, but it as like dealing with a bunch of trained typing monkeys who could not deviate from their script - "how can we get your business today". And when I pressed further, they're asking me why do I want to know, am I another broker. Other $500 dollar margin brokers like Amp and Mirus have 2k and 2.5k minimums, respectively, to open accounts. Which is why I wanted to know what firm would allow this setup.

    A suggestion then to shut up all us doubters? (it would be far more effective than use of pissing squirrels to buttress your arguments) If they clear thru RCG, then you can go online and take a screenshot of daily activity, blocking out any personal info that no one needs to see. If you are for real, then I think you should be able to prove it. As evidenced by those joining in the discussion, there are too many noob's looking to you to unlock the secrets of trading and they shouldn't be misled.

  4. Cftc would never set account minimums. Only margins for overnites. Geeeez. Thought you guys were elitetraders

    2 different issues, Mr elite. CFTC does not set margins: span margins are for the contracts and determined by the exchanges (which btw also dictates overnights) CFTC is what controls FCM's. Minimum account deposits for margin accounts are something totally different.
