Many of the stock systems one can trade fractional, ie 25% of the developers base amount buy&sell fractional #shares, but some of the forex systems buy and sell units of 10k continually, can we fractionally use this if we do not have the full funds, or can we tell which ones have problems with this?

The new AutoTrade Control Panel should help you see how the trades would look, and what fractional percentages (if any) are recommended.

I noticed that the auto-trader can decrease the trade scaling percentage but only up to a certain limit, that is, up to 10K lot for Forex systems.  
  
  
  
In other words, the minimum trade size is always 10k, regardless of the scaling percentage.  
  
  
  
But like Matthew said, test the auto-trade feature and see for yourself.
