I just found another link, evidently it's 10 round turns in Futures. tradestation.com I still trade the ES as I've always done, I can't create a rule to put into strategy testing. So at the moment I'm in Tradestation for the low fees & the simplicity of having all of the accounts under one platform. I don't trade Gold & the others the same way, but they are position trades & handled differently anyway. I don't know how to handle the ES as far as a positional Long yet. Probably the way I should have done it was to put in the wide stop & forget about it. I don't know, it seems I was always better off daytrading it. Killer is okay, trading Forex. I had to get him into a market that I wasn't going to be there watching over his shoulder & driving him crazy. He trades small, wins often but small numbers. This is a funny business. I have a zillion dollars of computer equipment, books, seminars attended & he does it all on a Lenovo laptop. I tried to get him a job working in a New York pit, but those are scarce. At least he would have been playing with other boys his own size though.
