I am still on demo bacause I need $5000 to open a standard account on ACM, which im used to. I will start by next year though, and do this full time. No point on wasting my time on a micro or mini account. Besides, then mini account on ACM is $2000.

I would reconsider blasting out fulltime with only 5k in the bank. Now I don't know where you're from or what the economic levels are in your area, but it seems as if you are currently struggling to get to 5k in the first place. This would suggest that you have either a tight budget with a healthy income, or a loose budget on a mediocre income. My feelings would point towards the latter.
Now I understand that you're all hyped up on your system. Which is good. But you do need to be realistic. When you're system is live and has earned you a solid year of income that you have in the bank, then think about going full time.
Furthermore, I think your logic is flawed if you think that opening a micro or mini account is a waste of your time. If anything, it's going to be a great educational experience as you can put your system to the test and see how it will actually perform. So if ACM lets you get in with 2k. Do it. Put your system to work. If your system is that grand on a live system, you don't have to worry about saving up 5k by the end of the year. Your mini account can earn that for you.
Simply put, I don't know of anyone in any game of risk that went fulltime on a 5k bankroll and survived.
Best of luck.
