Verify that overall leverage and margin requirements are not being overwritten by the specific contract specifications of the symbol being tested.

In the Strategy Tester options, you can click on the [$] icon (on the same line as the symbol selector) and modify the contract specifications to some extent.

Also, please provide more details if you need a more informed answer.
