Luc I spent years trying to trade US futures. Like you wanting to trade larger stocks, I would like to eventually get back to futures one day, and I think I know what I need to do now to trade futures successfully.
E.g., the emini-S&P(ES) moves in 0.25 increments/tics. Each tic is worth $12.50. There are four tics in 1 ES point. SO that means to trade ONE contract, I would need a certain amount of money(current price of the ES * 4 * 12.50). SO it will be a while before I get that much money :(
This number will be much different than the typical $500 margins that brokers give you for one contract.
