Default how to change to 0.01 lots?

Hello..
I have a question...

Iam using a demoaccount with 500$ because that is what i will use when (if) going live with this one. So far it has only open Long on M1 EURUSD, but on all of them it has open 0.1 Lots, but that is way to large lots. I have set it to 0.01 lots. Can anyone help me where i should change. I have tried to change this settings:
FapTurbo_Lots=0.01
FapTurbo_LowLot=0.01 (dont know if this one should be changed)

I have even tried to set this one: Scalper_Lots=0.01

still only open trades at 0.1 .. gaah!!

Have I missed something on the settings???
Thanks /stuve

Your broker must support the smaller lots but in general the best way to do it is simple to turn the MM feature on and set the lot size to zero, then set your LRR to 1-2%.

Yes, I think i have tried it before. but i change it again and wait until next trade and see.

what do you think of FapTurbo_LowLot? should I set it to 0.01 aswell?

regards
Stefan

If you are using the money management features it will depend on you leverage and starting balance. If you have a $10,000 demo it probably won't trade in 0.01 lots. I set my MM value to true and my lot size to 0 and let FAPS choose the lot size based on my LRR setting of 5%.

with FXDD you have to request a micro account otherwise it'll default to .1 even if you put .01 in the field...
