MT4 signals, volume size only 0,01

 
Greetings,
I am subscribing to a signal on my live forex account
However, the lot size does not follow the signal's size
It only opens order using 0.01 size

I have already set my options to use 95% of the equity for this signal.

Signal account size:300

signal order lot size 0.03

my account size:260

my order lot size following signal: 0.01 ( should be 0.026)   using [ 260/300 * 0.03 ]


Can someone assisit me please...
Many thanks in advance, i am at a loss

Regards

Hi angevoyageur:

So your lot size would be 0.026 / 5 = 0.0052, rounded to 0.01

Dear angevoyageur,

you have enlightened me

may i ask you another question please...

assumming i have the same leverage as the signal(1:500)

if my account balance is $1000,

when the signal makes a trade with lot size 0.02

my lot size will be [ 1000/300 * 0.02]  = 0.06?

Hope i am right =)

Almost. It depends of % deposit you have setted. As the maximum is 95%, lot size will be 0.06 * 95% = 0.057, probably rounded to 0.06 anyway.
 

Bonjour Angevoyageur,

Is there a way to "manually" hike lot sizes?

I want to "amplify" the trades I copy from a Signal. How do I do that on MT4?

Is there a EA/ Script that allows me to amplify/ hike the lot sizs of copied trades from signals?

Please let me know.

Please let me know.

Set %deposit to 95% (maximum) or invest more capital. There is no other way to hike volume with Signals service.

There is workaround, but you have to search.

Dont forget to start your signal at the opportune time.Otherwise you could start it and end up in a draw down right away.

It's needed to run full-time but not mandatory to use a VPS, if you can let your computer running 24/24. However in theory a VPS is more secure.
