Title: I am confused about lots settings in EA
Post by: matt on December 10, 2009, 09:14:43 pm
Hello aeron support,

You have given 2 options, one is AutoLots calculation, and other is specify-lots-manually.

I want to know, if I set AutoLots=True, then how it is caculating the lots size.

Thank you

Hello matt,

In present version of Aeron EA, we are using 1% of your free margin to calculate the starting lots size.

For eg. if you have $5000 in your account & setted AutoLots=True, then it will start trading with lots size, that may be open in $50 (1% of $5000)

If you want to be very conservative trading, then you may set AutoLots=False, and set the small lots size.

I am running it on 2 demo accounts.
On one account I set AutoLots=true
& on other I set it False, and specify the lots size only, 0.5% of free margin.

obviously second one giving me less profit than previous one, but I think second would be more safer.
