Money Management

Fixed Lots:

This option means that each time a signal is being sent by the system, the trade will open with a fixed volume (number of k) as set when choosing the system to the portfolio or when modifying its money management.
In the example above: each trade of this system will open with 20k.

Fixed Ratio:

This option means that the volume of the next position will change according to the change in balance. When the balance increases by the amount set on ‘Fixed Ratio Delta’ the trade opens with an addition to the volume as set on ‘k-Fixed Ratio Base’, and vice versa- when the balance decreases, volume decreases accordingly. However, the minimum volume of a trade is 10k, and therefore no matter how much the balance decreases, the volume cannot go below 10k.
In the example above: let’s assume the original trade was opened with 20k and that the original balance was 1000$. The next time the system sends a signal, if the balance is between 2000$ and 3000$ the position will open with 30k.

Fixed Fractional:

This option calculates the volume (number of k) that the next position will open according to the set percentage of the balance and the amount of pips one is willing to risk on the trade. The method calculates the percentage of the balance and divides it by the value of pips set on the window above. The significance of the result is the value of 1 pip on that deal. The volume of the trade will be set to fit the value of 1 pip as calculated.

In the example above: let’s round the balance to 90,000$.

In order for 1 pip to equal 18$ the volume of the trade should be 180k.

Reverse:

This option can go with each one of the options above. When choosing a system to be reversed, for each signal a provider sends- buy will become sell and vice versa. It also pertains to SL and TP values (SL value will become TP and vice versa).
