Yeah... I've done alot of backtesting so far it seems like 0.01 lot sizes are the only way that the backtest has prevented a margin call. So far.

DislikedSo you didn't get margin call yesterday when it started selling USDGBP? Strange... I wonder if Xaron got it... I'll see if TradeCriticQtty is enabled in his templatesIgnored
DislikedI really don't know why I am answering this kind of posts. I feel I'm trying to convince you about MAM quality.
Let's think for a while you are making an effort to understand the system. So here I upload my real account daily statement.
I hope this help you.
If you have a point to mention, please just do it. It will contribute with EA improvement.

DislikedRama,
you are not obliged to answer my questions. But if you do, please try to avoid remarks such as "these types of questions". Since you are missing a valid point here, I'll try to elaborate: I got margin call with the same EA with the same settings as Xaron uses with 0.01 lots, whereas nobody else did (Xaron was offline, but I don't believe his settings are very much different from others). So actually I am contributing to the reproducibility of this EA by raising this question. Again, you should choose if you want to answer it. BTW, I appreciate your work and publishing the EA

DislikedI use 0.01 pips as starting lot size as well. 0.1 is way to high to survive with such a small account.
Where do you see that I use 0.1 in my statement? BTW: My account is 3,000 EUR, that's more than $4,500... That should add another "safety".

DislikedNo it isn't. 0.01 lot means 1000 units of the first currency of the pair. So 0.01 lot for the EUR/USD means 1000 units of EUR.
