>>Too many horror stories with margin accounts these days. In these fast moving markets one could drop 100 grand with out even knowing it<<

How could you drop 100k without knowing it unless you weren't paying attention?????

There's no difference between a cash account and a margin account as long as you know what your position is. If you're leveraged, your gains/losses are multiplied by the leverage factor.

It's all up to you.
