There is a "Lots" entry in the ea properties. I think it does affect the way the expert works. I compared it's performance for the following values: 0.1, 0.05, 0.01 and they differed considerably. The diagram was the same shape, but its slope was the steepest with 0.1 lot and the least steep with 0.01 lot. However, the story went similar in all cases, up to a point it uses the initial lot size, but then it multiplies the lot size and the slope becames steeper till the hanging positions have to be closed at the end of the test.
