Understand the contract
Futures contracts have defined tick sizes, multipliers, expirations and settlement terms. Verify specifications with the exchange and broker. Lucid’s ES, MES, NQ and MNQ calculations use configured contract specifications and depend on the accuracy of imported records.
Execution and liquidity
Gaps, volatility, exchange halts and limited liquidity can prevent execution at an expected price. Stop orders do not guarantee a maximum loss. Prop-firm account rules may differ from broker risk limits.
Data licensing
Live market data is subject to provider authorization and licensing. Lucid does not represent development examples as exchange data. Level 2 and market-by-order features require an appropriate data source.
