Hello,
You need to either turn off "allow position shrinking" or
set
RoundLotSize = 1;

Subject: [amibroker] Puzzling forex trade size
> Hi,

> I've got this code at the start to set my trade size.
>
> MarginDeposit = 1; // 100:1 leverage
> TickSize = 0.01; // for JPY Currencies
> TickSize = 0.0001;
> PointValue = 1/TickSize; //this adjusts profit so for 1 pip = $1 (tick
> sizes: 0.01 for yen AND 0.0001 for others)
> SetPositionSize(1,spsShares);
>
> On most trades, the trade size is 1, how I expect.
>
> However, some trades are a fractional size like 0.7 or 0.3
>
> It doesn't how much equity I have 1,000 or 1,000,000. The trade size is
> still 0.7 or 0.3 for those particular trades.
>
> When I change to SetPositionSize(10,spsShares); very few of the share
> sizes are 10, most are values under 10.

> This is a very puzzling symptom as I thought that if you have enough
