Not offhand. It couldn't be much though. Next time I'm placing an order I'll ask. But Man may have higher requirements than most. I doubt it could be as high as the spoo. Anywho, I said it was only a paper day-trade, so I guess I havta do something soon. Let's see; it's at 123.02; let's say (if I'm not stopped out at breakeven) the balance will be sold MOC and see how it goes.

Darn, classic error. I thought when I entered that last spoo trade I was about 15 minutes too early. In any even the bond closed at 122.30 so there's a tick there for 5 x 31.25 = 156.25 plus the 1406.25 I had before. Worked out okay. I was so pre-occupied with the "real" trade I forgot to ask about margin though. The bonds should have a few nice opportunities in the next couple of days, I think. It's going to take some getting used to though. I imagine I would have tried to trade out of them higher when I saw the spoo coming back but that's hindsight for ya.
