Default 5K trading micros isn't really sufficient even at 400:1 is it?

I guess that depends, but no sense playing if you cant get all the way in.
I put in another $100 and am playing both NJ and GJ.

NJ does nothing I just hold my 20 1K lots.
GJ though wow I made some pips today. Yes I have drawdown of 900 or so pips, but at this rate my drawndown will be banked pips before the month is over even if it goes sideways from here.

Yes I hit 13% once today with 9 1k GJ and 20 1kNJ
when we were down at 209.00ish. The GJ really is king.

Between long and short I managed to stay at b/e maybe made a few pips.
In the meantime, in demo account where I have tons of cash, I just kept buying every dip, selling every move up, even 8 pips... cashed out another $25k in that account. I never short there, just follow the rules. When my real account is big enough (in proportion it would have to be $5k trading micros to match the $500k trading full lots in the demo account) then maybe I can trade that way without fear of messing up and being knocked out of the game.

I have failth but have been knocked down enough in life that I just have to stay practical as well At least until account is built to a better level.
Soon
