Hi,  
  
Looking to confirm that it’s not possible for a trader to have a trade smaller than 10,000 opened in their account.  
  
Put another way, is it possible for an auto-trade subscriber to receive a signal and have a trade size of 100 or 1000 units open in their account, through scaling or maximum trade size? Or would a customer with a $200 USD account be restricted to a minimum trade size of 10,000 units?  
  
Thanks

C2 only trades in mini lots so when a system is trading forex, all positions are executed as mini lots. The minimum execution quantity for forex is 10,000 or 1 mini lot.  
  
When an AutoTrader does not have enough funds in account to take on any particular trade entered by the system, he/she would receive a notice for insufficient funds or margin call.
