Help please!  this bot code cannot open mini-lot of bitcoin, i.e. 0.01 BTC.   Minimum it can open is 1 BTC.  How to change this code, or any other method to open mini-lot 0.01 lot of Bitcoin.  Many Thanks!

 

[Parameter(DefaultValue = 1000, MinValue = 0.01)]

public int Volume { get; set; }

Hi ctid1373829,

Can you please post the complete cBot code? Which broker do you use? Does the broker allow trading mini lots?

Best Regards,

Hi ctid1373829,

The code you referenced does not seem to use Volume in the initializing orders, You need to modify the following lines to use Volume instead of a fixed value (10000)

            for (int i = 1; i < HowMuchPositions; i++)
            {
                Trade.CreateBuyStopOrder(Symbol, 10000, Symbol.Ask + Spacing * i * Symbol.PipSize);
            }
            for (int j = 1; j < HowMuchPositions; j++)
            {
                Trade.CreateSellStopOrder(Symbol, 10000, Symbol.Bid - Spacing * j * Symbol.PipSize);
            }

Also the code is very old (8 years :) ), it needs to be updated to the latest version.
