Hi LuXing,
I hadn't much time today so I couldn't eve try to solve your riddle!
Anyway while busy in some other errands I'm giving it some thought and I'm already lost at the start.
I use the following formula to calculate the # of lots to trade:
Lots = (Equity * Risk) / (ContractSize * StopLoss)
and substituting values provided by you, I'm getting standard lots ranging from 0.6 to 1.1
Maybe I'm doing something wrong, maybe the difference is due to different ContractSize, I use MODE_LOTSIZE = 100000.
EDIT: error found i was dividing by 170.
I'll take time to read calmly your explanation, there is always a lot to learn from you.
Best regards,
Bubincka
