Hi my signal provider fires trades at 0.01, then 0.04 then 0.08 lot but my mt5 copies at only 0.01, 0.01 and 0.01 any idea why and how I can match his lot size too? His balance is $275.00 mine is $100.00
to copy the lot ratios correctly, you need to have higher balance and leverage then signal you copy.
i assume that this lots are on same instrument?
in this case, you should raise the balance much higher, otherwise will the martingale schema eat out your account eventually.
Thanks for the reply yes I've already set to 95% however the SP trades is buy in 0.1, 0.2 and 0.4 and sell out 0.7 but mine is buy in 0.1,0.1 , 0.1 and sell out 0.3... Not sure why.
Now you say something else

His balance is $275.00 mine is $100.00The lot size he uses step up from 0.01 then 0.02 then 0.04 doubling each time before all closes. However mine doesn't step up only at 0.01, 0.01 and 0.01. Leverage is the same as my sp at 1:500. Thanks for the help.

Sorry was abit confused as I just shifted from mt4 to mt5. Also was my typo error.

100 * 95% / 275 = 34.54%, rounded to 30% (See FAQ pt15.3).
So the 0.02 of SP give for you 0.02 * 30% = 0.006 rounded to 0.01 as minimum lot as 0.01.
and 0.04 of SP is 0.04*30%= 0.012 rounded to 0.01 also is increment for lot size is 0.01.
QED.
Ok so mean even if I have same amount as SP at set at 95% if he fires 0.01 then 0.02 then 0.04 I will not get the same lot I will be larger account size then him right? Thanks
Hope to add margin level and account STOP-OUT level fields into Signals service.
Hope to add monthly (NetProfit/Volume) or (NetProfit/(Volumes/Trades)) field into Signals service.
Very strange why do my mt5 keep automatically disabling the live subscription if signals? I have 2 mt5 terminal subscribing to the same signal but both get disabled by itself. Any idea?
