Topup Lots Change by LotsDescription
Above 0.00 Scales UP the lots for the topup trade at the entry. For example:
  • 0.01 scales up by adding 0.01 to the previous lots (i.e. up by 0.01 lots)
  • 0.50 scales up by adding 0.05 to the previous lots (i.e. up by 0.05 lots)
  • 0.10 scales up by adding 0.10 to the previous lots (i.e. up by 0.10 lots)
Exactly 0.00 This change by lots is not used. Instead the Topup Lots Multiplier is used to scale the lots.
Below 0.00 Scales DOWN the lots for the topup trade at the next entry. For example:
  • -0.01 scales down by subtracting 0.01 from the previous lots (i.e. down by 0.01 lots)
  • -0.05 scales down by subtracting 0.05 from the previous lots (i.e. down by 0.05 lots)
  • -0.10 scales down by subtracting 0.10 from the previous lots (i.e. down by 0.10 lots)
