Lou - I did the same thing - tested on BroCo - did not have good results as you had. Can you post your updated EA, maybe I got a bit outta place?;=) Thanks, Ken. (Even with all the options, the EA would work somewhat, but I had some iCustom calls ...

The big SP500 is $250 / point, and I think there are 10 ticks. Margin ? (maybe $25000) The e-mini ES is $50 / point, 4 ticks at $12.50 each. Margin about $5600 overnite, day-time half of that at most brokers, some give $500 and some less. More info ...
