Newbie needs help

[StefLC]

Hey,

I am totally new in automatic trading and I have a question:

I follow a signal. The trader has an equity of $1500. Last night he got 2 profit trades of $12 and $13.
I have an equity of $1000, I just earned $4.90 and $5.20 by those 2 same trades. It does not seem logical to me. Is it?

What can explain the ratio difference?

I am on a VPS, the pings look good.

Thank you.

 Check your lot size... even if you copy his trades your size position will be recalculated automatically depending of margin and equity...
