                Hi everyone,
Many brokers today offer 100-to-1 leverage or lower trading forex. Is there any way to perform a trading simulation with 1% margin requirement in MetaStock?
Thanks for your help!

                For 1%, in your simulation set your margin requirements settings like this :
Margin requirements :
Long Initial : 1% 
Long Maintenance : 0%
Short Initial : 101%
Short Maintenance : 101%

                By setting long initial margin requirement to 1% cause the following error:
You must enter a number between 5 and 100. |

                I guess 5% is the minimum you can use ...
Maybe I should report this as a bug :evil: |
