I just noticed a issue when enabling JPY pairs (other pair do not do this).
When enabling JPY pairs on strategies with MBTrading, when I enable a test account that is server side and choose 1000 as the default account and then save...when I enable and it begins to trade the default amount actually goes to "10" instead of 1000 and shutsdown the strategy. Even though the strategy does shut down sometimes a trade in those pairs still take place for 1000 initially and positions are left open.
The curious thing is the this does not happen on the chf/jpy pair though...but it does on all the other JPY pairs.
I also made another connection that this backs up a potential issue in backtests too where the chf/jpy does remarkably well in backtests, but the other JPY pairs do horrible.
I have been trying to isolate the issue and this seems to be the problem at this time.
Thanks for insights into fixing it and figuring out what is causing the problems so that it does not happen in the future...
