Actually with real money we would never push the margin as far as we do in this sort of paper trading contest (at least I wouldn't!). On a $250,000 account I would not hold more than 3 contracts overnight but here I have 7 open and am allowed 10. 10 contracts represents $3,350,000 in equity; an 8% correction would clean out your whole account.
