Lot size variation

Sergey Golubev  

You can calculate lot size by yourself using the example from this post

Please note: if you or your signal provider deposits/withdraws from/to accounts (BO = balance operations) or you or signal provider changes the leverage so your lot size may be changed. And it all should be written on the journal/logs of Metatrader (or logs of MQL5 VPS in case you are using VPS).

 So why does my copy trade lot size vary so much ?------same currency no withdrawal or addition in either account and provider lot size remains constant
bartkins  
 And leverage is the same

Hi Eleni;

  Thanks for your email

   There are NO manual trades on the account.

   No bonuses on the account.

  No extra EA on the account

   So ,you believe , the problem is on the other side----the broker i use (and i have copies of their trade orders ) said the problem is on the other side. 

  So we are now in an endless loop-----or is it the VPS ?

             Regards

I would like to see some evidence, some screenshot of the MQL5 VPS journal logs, referring to the copying ratio of your account and the opening of trades.

A screenshot of the signal provider's trading history would also help.

Hello Eleni;

  Please find vps data as requested-----note my lot size percentage was changed from 15% ( which is the correct size ) to 10%     Why ?
