That is 20 tradable contracts in total: 11 standard contracts, 7 Micros and 2 E-minis. All are available on every MILTRADERS account.
Mini vs Micro
A Mini (standard) contract is the full-size futures contract. Micros are a fraction of it: MES, MNQ, MGC, MHG, MCL and MBT are 1/10 of the standard contract, and SIL is 1/5 of SI. QM and QG are E-mini contracts (1/2 of CL and 1/4 of NG). PL, HO and RB are available in standard size only. Smaller sizes are ideal for finer position sizing and tighter risk management. Your contract limits count Minis and Micros together (1 Mini = 10 Micros).
Not available
No CBOT products (YM, ZB, ZN, ZF, grains), no other crypto futures, no forex futures, no options, stocks or CFDs. Only the 20 contracts above are offered — if a symbol is not on the platform, it is not available.
