How to change leverage level during EA backtest ?
I tried to find an option allow to change leverage level but failed. Is it possible ?
No.
The breaking of a wave cannot explain the whole sea.
It is possible in forward-testing but cannot be actively used for back-testing.

I'm not 100% sure, but don't you just create a new account?

Are you serious?

I mean... all that leverage does is allow you to trade bigger.

All you have to do is make sure your script uses less of that leverage available. (set your stops and profits accordingly)

If you have 1:200 leverage and you are only using 1:50 why would you need to change anything?

File -> Open account -> fill out the application stuff. There should be a leverage change thing.

He's probably checking to see if he has margin calls or not (w/ various leverages)
