As previously posted the inherent leverage in futures contracts greatly magnifies returns when used in conjunction with ATM % of equity. The calculations in Port Sim actually exceed the capability of OT so limits have to be placed.
Just for the fun of it this is a $100K acct with no leverage, 10 years with 2% of equity and including commissions.

This scenario is based on 40 futures contracts all classes from agricultural, metals, energy, currency, etc. The most profitable position was a six-week trade in Lean Hogs which netted $867K. The biggest loser was a soybean meal trade which lost $322K.

Now, back to work <:)
