Hi Guys,
currently testing out an EA. The results aren't bad, however, the risk managment position sizing is failing.
It will only execute at 0.1 on a 10,000 account as opposed to trading with 1 percent risk. if i increase the test balance to 100,000 it changes the lot size to 1.0 (std lot).
I have fiddled around with the risk % value, start, step, stop, fixed lot, nothing seems to work.
The platform is with IC Markets which uses the Prime XM bridge. is there anything i need to be aware of with ECNs and EAs?
Any help would be much appreciated.
cheers,
Angus
