Hi,
I what lot size to increase automatically as the account grows. can i get that with the MaximumPercentageatRisk option, if i set MaximumPercentageatRisk to 2%, will the lot size also increase by 2% if the account grows by 2%? if not, how can i set the EA to automatically increase lot size as the account grows?
Thank you

MaximumPercentageatRisk sets the lot size to that % of the free margin (amount available for trading) if the lot size in the buy/sell is higer that the MaximumPercentageatRisk. It is valid for USD accounts. So if the free margin increases then the lot size increases.
If you are a long time trader you will not use that and you will readjust the ea parameters manually weekly or every two weeks to match your risk reward ratio.

Thanks Admin.
Your reply really helped.
