The signal subscription lot size is copied automatically and proportionally to your account's balance, leverage and currency.
If your account is much smaller than the signal provider's is no surprise that you are copying with a smaller copying ratio and lot size.
Check your terminal's or MQL5 VPS's journal for details on the copying ratio of your subscription.
