I thought it was meant to be 0.01 lots per $2000 in the account, so shouldn't you be trading 0.02 then moving on to 0.03 when the balance reaches $6000? |
I start all accounts with the same starting balance (for the most part) and install the robot with it's default settings. I could change the lot sizes, but generally speaking I don't as I want the test to run "as advertised". Once I get into the realm of optimizing and tweaking and so forth, then it's not really a review of the robot, but more a test of different settings. At this stage I am not really set up to be able to do that kind of live testing. Maybe I'll do that in the future.

I have that around here somewhere. In the meanwhile, did you check the FAQ on the
Forex-Goldmine Home Page site? It has a lot of documentation there.
