Well thanks SG. I've been lurking for a month now as I'm trying to get comfortable again with trading demo after walking away from trading the last time as I kept getting margined out from impulsive trades and lot sizes that were too large. I wasn't happy with my gains because I was trading too small an account for the margin risk I needed so I stepped up my risk and ended up with inconsistant gains and inadequate gains. If I go live again it'll be with $5k minimum and I'll keep my risk low enough to survive the bad trades allowing me to add as needed but still make enough on gains to make it worth my time. That's the plan anyway.

I'm sticking with Alpari for demo unless things change btw.
