Invalid Lots
All,
Invalid lots tend to occur when the advanced features aren't set. You must make sure that your account balance is set exactly to what you have in your account or Piplite won't trade.
Second, you must play with the risk amount in order to get the lots correct. If you are trying to trade on a balance less than $2500, you will have issues with a martingale trader on a standard account. I suggest going to a micro account on accounts smaller than $2500. By the way, $2500 is about how much you need to trade with one pair on a standard account and $250 is min on a micro account.
Finally, my last suggestion is to try backtesting with the brokers you are using on the platform you are using. Most folks are getting Piplite to work with no problem on IBFX, FXDD, Tradeview and Alapri to name just a few. If you manage, somehow, to adjust the risk way too low, the lot size will automatically get set at .01 anyway.
