Chris - given the DAX you are more likely to get a 30/40 slippage on your stop.

A ten point stop loss means that you are risking, with brokerage 2.8% of the margin per contract (no slippage included). That means 35 trades and you will wipe out your margin. And given that the DAX can move 30 to 40 points in a single bound you could wipe yourself out earlier.

Risky game but if you have a positive expectancy in your system that works with the 2.8% risk per trade go for it.

My tolerance is 0.75% of capital.
