Lot size again

" Actually majority of traders in the group had no problems with current lot sizes, so I'm going to stick with it for the time being. "

Dear Racscave,

I have a 10.000$ account on Alpari UK . The minimum lot multiplier is 0.2. This gives me 0.1 and 0.2 lot size. If I go lower than 0.2, Alpari drops the trades smaller than 0.1 lot.

Can I follow your signal with a 10.000$ acc and this broker ?

It will make the the trades double the lot size than you recommend .

Pipperoni,

I know how to trade but unfortunately I'm no expert with setting up RAS ea properly. I would want to set it up, so it executes 1 mini lot max /per $1000 in the account. In the past I had 8 positions running and even though I try to move stops quickly to BE (break even), it would still be (in your case) total of 8% risk based on 100pips stop. Ideally you'd want to have it @ no more than 4-5% total risk.

I think your broker allowes micro lots, you should get 0.1lots and 0.05 lots with multiplier is set to 0.1.

 

Live versus demo

zomg:

I noticed that (in my demo account) with the multiplier at 0.1 it dropped the half-lot trades of your signal. I just checked, the demo has also 0.01 lots when I open the "new trade" window. My live account is indeed a micro account. I am a bit confused now. I will start live with the multiplier at 0.1 in stead of 0.2 and see what happens.

I am waiting to go live for a DD in your results curve. Do you agree this is the best way to start live ?

DD are part of this business, and they can occur at any time, today, tomorrow and a week after. I'm not sure what to tell you regarding the best time to go live. It could be at the begging of the week, month... I wouldn't go live on Fridays though..
