Hi,
I am coding a Multicharts.NET strategy in C# to trade 'UK Brent (Spot)' with LMAX.
The UK Brent (Spot) instrument allows fractional lot sizes in multiples of 0.1 lots.
When trading other instruments such as EURUSD. A 1 lot trade in multicharts opens 0.1 lots at the broker however, when opening a 1 lot trade in UK Brent (Spot) trade through the Trade bar or through C# code it opens a 1 lot trade at the broker, not a 0.1 lot trade as expected.
I have tried opening a 0.1 lot trade but the OrderCreator will not accept a non-integer value so the strategy will not compile.
Is there a way (maybe a setting somewhere) to open fractional lot trades in in an automated .NET strategy?
Thanks.
Ben

Hello Bentley,
At the moment it is not possible to send fractional contracts from MultiCharts.
We are working on the fix after which 1 contract in MC will be equal to 0,1 contract in LMAX platform.
