One simple question about leverage and margin

Dear FF community, I have one simple question about leverage. I am demoing an almost countertrend EA which is getting good results. Once it used all of my available margin. So it didn't open any other positions. I am trading at a 100:1 leverage. So my question is: If I wanted more margin, would I have to increase or decrease my leverage to be able to open more positions? Or would I need more capital? Lenny

{quote} If it used all of your margin at 100:1 that thing is going to blow you up. To your question, if you want more margin you will have to add more capital.
