    Con, axe your broker what to expect from this idea.
    If they say no prob, then Go For It.
    You got plenty of money, right?

    @Con1991 , what is the reasoning? What specific markets? they all have different dynamics, Cash settled, deliverable?, are these "illiquids" you are trading in the delivery period? Does the particular market have price limits?no price limits? what is the point to trading these markets? what contract size relative to Open interest do you want to trade? without answering any or all of these questions, the only answer a reasonable person could give is "Stay out"

    I think it will still take some time before you are an elite trader...assuming you will survive long enough to get there.
