Forex replay mode changes 1 to 0.1M..

[newbouldm]

Hi,

How do I change the lot size in replay mode from 0.1M to just 1?

When I sim-trade on live data, its '1' and when I switch to replay mode it changes to 0.1M..

This is causing me a problem because when I place a trade in replay mode, using the 0.1M, my stops and targets are reduced by just 1 each time they're hit and keeping me in a trade instead of taking me out, so I'm left with 99,999 then 99,998 etc etc..

This actually crashed NT(6.5 btw) with two error messages rapidly repeated to lots of beeps!

The error messages were:

"Failed to execute DB job 'ExecutionInsertJob'. Invalid argument."

and

"Failed to execute DB job 'OrderUpdateJob'. Invalid argument."

Can you help?

Hello Matt,

Unfortunately this is as expected. When you connect to Gain to trade in simulation on live data, orders will use quantities of 1-2-3, etc which represents regular lots of 0.1M. All other connections will use quantities of 0.1M to submit regular lots.

Can you please send me your log and trace file for the day it crashed to support[at]ninjatrader[dot]com. Please put 'Attn Jason' in the subject header and reference this forum thread.

In addition, please go to Tools-->Options-->Simulator-tab and enable 'Enforce immediate fills' and check if this make a difference.
