Thanks Drgoodvibe. What in your opinion and testing is "small lots relative to a large account" as it relates to a mini account? In other words, what would be a good balance in a mini-account to avoid any margin calls.

Also, I use 400.1 leverage which would obviously help to withstand any possible margin call as well.

Thank you.
