    Please explain how to solve this order rejection error

    I am running a strategy against several forex instruments using the SIM101 account.
    Some orders are being rejected with the error:
    error=UnableToSubmitOrder comment='Order 'xxx' can't be submitted: Not enough excess margin.' nr=-1

    What numbers specifically is ninja using to produce this error?

    Below are the relevant account and risk numbers that are defined:

    The Risk profile assigned to the SIM101 account has the following info defined for all the forex instruments I am trading:
    Buy Intraday margin=100
    Sell Intraday margin=100
    Initial Margin = 100
    Maintenance Margin = 100
    max Order Size = 50,000,000
    Max Position Size = 50,000,000

    The account balance is set to 93,000.
    The forex lot size is set to 1,000.

    The strategy placed an order with Quantity=85,500

    Please advise what I am doing wrong.

    Thanks,
    Gary
