How to use account free margin to determine next position size as a MM; The results in one broker 3333 PIP spread and another - MQL4 and MetaTrader 4

renatops, I think it is a really good idea to use the AccountFreeMargin() to determine the next position size as a MM qs opposed to the account balance that do not reflect the real situation.

Thanks

Thanks renatops,

I will give it a try.

Though I will use

double GetSizeLot()

{

return(NormalizeDouble(AccountFreeMargin()/StopLoss*RiskLevel,1));

}

as I want to use it when testing and on demo.

using RiskLevel = 0.03 or 3%

So if my accountfreemargin is 1000 and my stoploss is 50 then

lots = (1000/50*0.03) = 0.6 right?

at risklevel = 1 or 100%

lots = (1000/50*1) = 20 - all my available account free margin if I should hit my stoploss. I see the light!
