I have a question. This has happened all the time. I place a buy or sell order for 1.0 lots. Everytime My trade gets executed for a profit or loss, the trades are always on mini lots. Isn't 1.0 basically 1 standard lot?

No, they trade in mini lots. You will need a size of 10 for one standard lot.

Well, you can set the lot size actually :shock:

Go to Navigate - Preferences - general - use lots for forex quote/order quantities: 1 lot = [highlight=red]fill in your lot size here, std 10.000, minimum 1.000 ("microlot")[/highlight]
