Topup Lots Multiplier

Topup Lots Multiplier

The rate of change which is used to scale the lots size for the topup trades at each entry.

During the scaling the EA ensures that the scaled lots sizes stay within the broker required minimum and maximum lots range.

Important: The scaling values add up (compound) across the topup entries.
Topup Lots MultiplierDescription
Above 1.0 Scales UP the lots for the topup trade at the entry. For example:
  • 1.3 scales up to 130% of the previous lots (i.e. up by 30%)
  • 1.5 scales up to 150% of the previous lots (i.e. up by 50%)
  • 2.0 scales up to 200% of the previous lots (i.e. up by 100%)
Exactly 1.0 No change to the lots. 1.0 means keep it the same, at the 100% of the previous level's lots.
Below 1.0 Scales DOWN the lots for the topup trade at the next entry. For example:
  • 0.8 scales down to 80% of the previous lots (i.e. down by 20%)
  • 0.5 scales down to 50% of the previous lots (i.e. down by 50%)
  • 0.3 scales down to 30% of the previous lots (i.e. down by 70%)
Excatly 0.0 This lots multiplier is not used. Instead the Topup Lots Change by Lots is used to scale the lots.
