      Ugh. Sorry, Josh to keep bringing this up. But I just opened a new account at MB Trading and now it's different yet again from what was working with Gain.

      Now I'm getting the pennies as profit/loss on a live MB Trading chart running the same strategy that worked fine with Gain. Is there something I have to set up differently for MBT? I have already set the Quote Fx question to TenthPip. Is there something else to change so I can see correct Strategy Performance stats on a live chart?

      Thanks!

            cassb,

            The quantity you are submitting is too small for MBT. Please try quantities like 0.01M.

              OK, you are right Josh. For MB Trading, they want orders in 1000s. So 1000 = 1 microlot, 10,000 = 1 minilot and 100,000 = 1 std lot. I think I got it straightened out now, thanks! Boy this Forex market is confusing!
