Hi Bill,

Yes, the ER2 is worth $10 per dime move. Lots of bang for the buck. Initial margin for the ER is $2000 per contract, or $4000 overnight. I have never held overnight on purpose. I once thought I'd closed a complete position but left one contract out there. I didn't figure this out for 2 days... and made over $300 on it. Joke was on me! I've tightened up my activity since then and avoid mistakes like that.

I don't trade anything else anymore. Some ETFs in my IRA, but not even much of that.
