The provider I am copying the trade from is trading with a 0.1 lot size (that's what I see from his trading history), and it gets copied in my trading account with the same lot size (0.1), even though I have more balance in my trading account than he does. How can I fix this? I am using 1:500 leverage and have allowed a maximum of 95% participation. How can I ensure that the trade in my account will open with a 0.10 lot size when the provider opens with 0.1?

Here are examples how the lot size is calculated:
