Now that you’ve set the subscription strategy and volume scaling, the next step is to decide how to handle situations where the volume calculated by the strategy exceeds the maximum allowed volume. Here comes the Correction option: with it you can set the maximum number of lots you want to copy for each trade and the action the system should take if the volume opened by the Provider exceeds your set value.
You have two options if the volume is more than your max open volume:
- Skip - Do not open an order if expected volume exceeds the maximum volume.
- Scale down - Allows opening an order if expected volume exceeds maximum volume.
For example:
If your subscription strategy calculates a required trade volume of 4 lots, but your correction setting limits the maximum volume to 2 lots:
- Skip: The trade will not be opened.
- Scale Down: The trade will be opened with 2 lots.
