Hi there, great job on making this EA. It helps me place orders on a sloping line, tremendously useful. But I don't think the risk settings are working well. I have set the Lot mode to "FIX_PROG" and Risk as 1.0, but it keeps placing orders for 0.09 lots for every pair. That is not 1% risk. How do I set it so that it calculates exactly 1% risk of my balance amount?

Hello. Sorry for late response.

FIX_PROG lot calculation is based on LotFix setting, BalanceLot setting, and your Account Balance. Doesn't affect by Risk setting.

The calculation is : Your Account Balance / BalanceLot x LotFix.

Example :

Your Balace = $1750

BalaceLot = 100

LotFix = 0.01

So your lot size will be : 1750/100 x 0.01 = 0.175. Lot size will be round down and 2 digit decimal. So the final Lot is 0.17.


Risk setting is for DYNAMIC calculation.

The calculation is : Risk / 1000 x Account Free Margin / BalaceLot.

The result will be round to 2 digit decimal.


You can use FIX mode so it will only use LotFix setting as your lot size.

If you have questions, please contact me. Thank you.
