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! jacossio

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% Maybe refer to this post as well http://forum.equis.com/viewtopic.php?t=161

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:
