I have issues with LotAmount and Multiplier as well.


I tried trading ES with Lots=1. When setting LotAmount to 50, which is the number of contracts per lot for ES, I get an insufficient funds error message (the demo-account has $1 million capital). I have not set the Multiplier variable.


When I set LotAmount to 1 it works perfectly fine.
Also, I checked the logfile, and units is shown as 50, so it seems that the plugin automatically detects the contracts per lot.


I tried other future contracts too and got the same results.

Could anyone clarify how LotAmount works when trading IB futures?
