How Much to Trade @YM

I have a couple of questions:

How much cash do I need do I need to trade intraday @YM through tradestation? (on margin)

How many transactions do I need to complete a month for free tradestation service?

Thanks in advance.

I haven't used TS in awhile Bobby, but all this info is on their site. Feel free to take a look and take a little time to answer your own questions.

BF is right about the TS forum, there are more detailed info there, unless you don't have an account yet, in that case you can't browse TS forum.

MINI DOW JONES ($5) * YM $3,503 $2,802 $1,000**
You'll need 10 transactions; but don't forget the exchange fees for YM which is about $60/month. I don't know the minimum account size.
