And just to flesh the AMP thing a bit more... For the big money traders out there, AMP's intraday/overnight margins for ES *double* if your account balance is $100k or higher. So instead of $400, it would be $800... Same thing for MES, but doubt anyone would trade MES with $100k to work with!

I think anyone with a 100k can afford 800$ margins...

Naturally, I only mention it because about a month ago, a trader was going to move big money over to get the $400 and when he found out it was going to be $800, he went elsewhere.
