When following a signal, hands are tied with the lot size

 
Hello everybody.

I was wondering if there is any possibility nowadays to play with the trade size of an account in which we are copying a signal.

Most of the signals are trading 0.01 lots. That will bring small earnings. it’s true. It will also bring small losses if the case is to go down.

They used to be some experts who copied signals Trade and even multiplied it, but they are no longer supported by mql5.

With the possibilities of actually choose how to trade when copying a signal this service becomes very little appealing. 

The admins of the site should remember that We should have the possibility to choose exactly what to do with our money. This is my opinion, and I am expecting others.
 
Just put more money in your traded account that will increase the lot size. Here is the calculation: https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/9950/page93#comment_4052813

Mt5 is such a complex tool, it’s a shame it’s so cut off by it’s own makers.
Dont u think?

No, because greed switches off the brain and many people would lose their money very quickly, but would not blame their own mindless greed, but the signal, the signal provider, the broker, MT5, in short everywhere but themselves.

I can also understand that. And it’s very true.

Yet, a powerfull house as it is, mt5 seems now a poor donkey. I am a begginer, dont have the right amount of money nor the understanding to play with the portofolio by myself. The options i have today with mt5 will make me probably to loose interest in 2-3 weeks. And not because i have lost all my money.
