Hi,
How do I change the leverage of strategies tester ? It's only 1:100

Hi qkhanh - To change the MT4 leverage:

1) Select 'Export to MT4' on the currency you wish to export.
2) In the Mt4 Export window, select Metatrader Info tab and specify the Account Leverage to be whatever you need.
3) Press OK and wait for it to complete.
4) Launch Metatrader by pressing F8 in Tickstory.
5) Run your EA.

Hope this helps.

Stupid question: how would data feed possibly affect leverage? Seems mind boggling.

Hi Janko,

Leverage is a setting that is used by EAs to make various determinations about lot-size, etc. It doesn't at all affect the tick/pricing data.

Regards.
