I have a question:
Are we allowed to take huge positions in thinly traded stocks? In real life, such a trade would probably cause some market impact. e.g. I have JTC which trades less than $5,000 on most days and no trades on many days.

IIRC, Uncle Gummy's rules say you can trade any security on any world market assuming any forex costs.
