If you use BF of 10000, then it will open (for example) 0.005 lots.

Default Time of AUD/NZD upper range test...

I guess that now the time for testing of the assumption of the mathematical proof or GT-Shadow/Robominer has come... The price is at the historical upper range .

Yesterday's decision of Bank of New Zealand does not help NZD...

Yeah, it's looking a bit hairy. Too bad I don't have more equity in the accounts, or I hadn't started until recently...

is right!

Use Margin Percent works with the Margin setting:

Quote:
Margin=0.25
The margin percentage to use in auto-calculation of lots. It is strongly recommended that you do not go above 0.25 for 400:1 leveraged accounts or 0.50 for 200:1 leveraged accounts.

UseMarginPercent=True
When set to true, the GT-Shadow will use the Margin setting above to determint the size of each trade. When set to false, the program with use an arithmetic method based on the BalanceFactor to determine the lot size of each trade.
I have confirmed this with Jerry, that yes, if you set this to true, Balance Factor will be disabled.

Default Hedging eur/usd with usd/chf

I was wanting to hedge these pairs against each other using gt-shadow. Does anyone know how I would do this. I can't figure out which one to set buy/sell to true and the rangestart. Would I need to place it on both pairs charts or just on one? The "shadow proift" is also still confusing me. Thanks to anyone who can help me out

The initial balance USD 5600
Current balance USD 6370
