I trade pretty short-term (usually have stops 5-10 ticks from entry). It all depends on the type of trading your doing. For example, if I'm entering a limit on weakness, There's usually at least 30 contracts for every level if you watch the DOM. I know for a fact getting filled on 36 is not difficult. If you're chasing momentum, it's a different story, you may have 1-2 tick slippage on a market entry.
I'm no guru, but that's just my observations. Hope it helps some.
