Example - Scale Lots Down by Amount
Example - Scale Lots Down by Amount
- Goal: I want to start with 0.10 lots and scale down by 0.02 for each topup.
- How-to: Here is an example EA configuration how to achieve the above:
- Lots for Initial Trade Entry = 0.10
- Topup Lots Multiplier = 0.0
- Topup Lots Change by Lots = -0.02
This example assumes that the broker minimum lots requirement is 0.01 for the market.
- Description: The below table shows the lots to be used for the trade entries:
