Bugs in Strategy Tester??

Hi I've got this weird problem where I'll use my strategy tester to test a strategy with $100 and it will test all the way through the testing dates, and I'll have maybe 15 trades. But if I raise the start amount to 500 or 1000, then the tester stops making trades halfway into the test, and I only end up with 10 trades. It seems like it can go only calulate so high and above maybe 50,000 it stops. Is there such a thing? Or maybe if it gains money too quickly it stops? I know thats highly unlikely but I have no idea why it just stops in the middle of my testing period when all I change is my starting amount of money.

thanks
Nicholas

It is most likely that your broker only allows a certain amount of lots per trade. Is your EA going over 100 lots? Or do they have a maximum for mini account? That might be it. Best of luck.
