      Hi,

      I am using this simple strategy. I have used 'Lots' for the input setting. When I change the value for lots to 0.01 in the MT4 tester, for some reason it keeps trading with 0.10 lots. This seems to be happening with all pairs in the tester.

      I have tried everything and it's not trading micro lots. Also there is something strange going on with the backtest here on USDJPY pair. The BUY trades quote a price with 5 decimal places, the sell trades quote the pair with only 3 decimal places. It's buggered up the points/pips value settings. Is this an issue with my Strategy Quant data from Dukascopy, or is this an issue with the FXD builder? Can you please check?

        Check the Journal, it may be that the minimul lot size you have in MT4 settings won't allow you to trade .01 lots.

          The issue seems to be the historic data I'm using. I don't get that error with other pairs
