No that is not true. We did a test now and we get the values of 12,000(ES) and 1200(MES) respectively. To test this, we entered limit orders and checked the margin requirement field in the Trade >> Account Balances Window.

We do not know how you are coming to the conclusion that you are.

These margin rates are pulled directly from the CME every day.

You could also add more funds to your account to meet any margin requirements :
