Max lot size via MT4 on IG


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

I have contacted IG support (UK) a few days ago and I've been told there is on limit on lot sizes.

However, by searching online, I am unsure if that statement is true.

There seem to be limits. Anyone come across this before?

Just run a 99.90% modelling quality backtesting via tick data suite and some trades have super high lot sizes such as 31016.60

My intention is to run my recently developed EA with a set-and-forget approach for 10yrs - see .zip file attached for full report. (Oh unable to attach .zip)

Contact me if you'd like to see the full report 

Thank you.

Br,

    • Silver Elliott Wave Analysis  Function -Trend Mode - Trend Structure - Impulse for blue wave A Position - Wave 5 of (5) Direction - Wave 5 of (5) in play Details -Wave 5 of (5) extends higher. There appears to be room for more before prices start turning down for a retracement. Same interpretation as the previous update. Silver has moved sideways for nearly 72 hours amid a strong year-long bullish trend. The price is more likely to break to the upside to continue this trend. However, if it breaks to the downside, buyers are expected to push the price up again shortly thereafter. Nevertheless, a significant pullback lasting several weeks is anticipated at some point. The question is: how much higher can the metal go before this pullback?   On the daily chart, the price extends the bullish sequence that began at 11.645 in March 2020. This sequence could either complete a double zigzag with a 100% target at 37 and potentially extend further to 48.3. If 48.3 is breached, the likelihood that the sequence will turn into an impulse wave increases. Whether it becomes an impulse or remains a corrective sequence is not crucial at this point since both scenarios project further rallies, with the impulse wave having a higher target. Currently, attention should be on the impulse sequence that started in January 2024, which is expected to complete blue wave A of the primary degree or blue wave 1 of an impulse. The impulse is close to completing its 5th wave—wave 5—after which a pullback is expected. The H4 chart shows the progress of wave (5) of the impulse and how much further it could go before the pullback begins. The price is currently in wave 3 of (5). Wave 3 appears to be incomplete, with the current triangle serving as the 4th sub-wave of wave 3, i.e., blue wave iv. Traders can expect the triangle to break to the upside to complete wave 3, followed by a minor pullback for wave 4 and further advances for wave 5. At the end of wave 5, we can expect a peak and a downward turn for primary degree wave B (in blue on the daily chart), which could last for several weeks.

    • The anticipated drop in UK's CPI data for April is a key determinant for a potential interest rate cut in June by the Bank of England.   Source: Getty Images   Forex Shares Consumer price index Pound sterling Market trend GBP/USD Written by: Richard Snow | Analyst, DailyFX, Johannesburg   Publication date: Wednesday 22 May 2024 07:14 On Wednesday, the UK's Consumer Price Index (CPI) data is expected to decline for both headline and core measures. Consensus estimates project the headline measure dropping significantly from 3.2% to 2.1%. This lofty expectation could lead to market disappointment if the figures come in higher than anticipated. Even a small miss to the upside would still represent substantial progress. Economic calendar   Source: DailyFX In April of last year, services inflation re-accelerated more than expected, continuing into May and June, prompting the Bank of England to raise interest rates during its June 2023 meeting. However, this year’s guidance suggests that the data may be less extreme due to generally lower headline prices. Services prices, often index-linked to headline prices, are not expected to pass through as significantly as in 2023. UK Services CPI Year-on-Year Change (April -July)   Source: Refinitiv A UK inflation print that meets or undershoots expectations could catalyse bearish sentiment for sterling, particularly given the waning GBP/USD price action below the 1.2736 level. Given the high inflation expectations, even a slight upside miss might still exert bearish pressure, reflecting the overall progress towards the 2% inflation target. The presence of upper wicks and small candle bodies in GBP/USD charts suggests diminishing bullish momentum, potentially leading to a lower move if catalysed by appropriate data. Should prices cap at 1.2736, a downward movement would remain constructive following a better-than-expected CPI print. The pound has rallied against the dollar since April's lower US CPI print. A short bias would be invalidated at 1.2800, with support and a short target set at 1.2585. GBP/USD daily chart   Source: TradingView Markets currently view a June cut as a 50/50 outcome ahead of UK CPI – enhancing its importance in the lead up to the central bank meeting. A softer CPI print, followed by dovish comments from BoE officials creates an environment where the first rate cut since the hiking cycle may be upon us sooner than expected. However, if inflation fails to match up to the lofty expectations, pricing may reflect a preference for August or even later in the year.
