Most brokers have a limit of MaxLot=100 (Roboforex=10,000?)
and during testing we have that martin deals are opened with the volume of the broker's MaxLot
I suggest making the parameter "Max 1st deal Lot ".
According to Martin's settings, everyone will be able to calculate it for themselves.
And with a test for a long distance, there will be a fairer result.
Why don't you use something more real, and withdraw money from time to time? I do not think that in 2 years I will not make any withdrawals. Nobody guarantees that the strategy and the future market will not burn your account.
Why do you need backtests with 100 lots trades?!?
Do you want to fool yourself? )
I agree with others.
You can use fixed lot for testing purposes. I can't imagine situation when you need to limit start lot while live trading.
Please, update the topic if you have some arguments.
As I understand, you guy want to reduce the risk when the balance increases by using the fixed first lot, the simplest is you use the fixed lot setting = 0.3 instead 0.01 per 1000, that is solved, yes which you have to manually install.
I don't see the need of it. Just set the starting lot as 0.3 and ur job is done!
and if u set max lot for any deal as 0.3 then it will all martingale capped to 0.3 irrespective of starting lot size. Its pretty clear, imo.
Can you guy change max lot for any deal to max lot for first deal. Because if apply max lot for any deal will work wrong with martingale.
