Maybe you can read thread https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/10773 - Item 7.

You must configure the setting of signal copying and click "OK"

Maybe this method helps you.

The balance of the provider is currently 54 510$ with 1:100 leverage. What is your balance and leverage ? Have you read how lot size are calculated ?
 

Hi angevoyageur,

 

thank you for your response,

yes in the meantime i have solved the problem by the answers i get from this thread.

It is because of my account balance, which is a lot smaller :)

thats why it only trades this 0.01 lot positions.

Is there any way to reconfigure this manuel to user bigger orders? Probably not i assume... :)

yes i read now... :)

Thanks
