Isn't Tradeview a 100:1 broker? And you can't trade down to .01 with Tradeview. Methods like this usually need more leverage than 100:1 and the ability to trade very small. I apologize if I'm wrong -- and please correct me If I am -- but I don't think Tradeview is a broker for this method.

If you are trying to trade with $250, you have to have a micro account (live) or you have to be backtesting on a micro account or you must be trading on a demo micro account. IBFX has demo micros that had an "m" at the end of the chart pair i.e: EURUSDm.

Zero divide errors are occuring with manual lots set or when the broker decimal set is "not set". Check your charts to see the data stream. If your broker is sending you data with either 3 or 5 digits after the decimal point, you have a "5 decimal" broker and that menu set item must be set to 10.

Again, most of these errors are attributed to the type of broker account you are using and whether or not it's a 4 decimal broker or 5. A lot of brokers will not let you trade down to .01 lots. They state the lowest they will start at is .1 then they will let you trade .11, .12, etc.

There are a lot of live traders with Blessing right now. Most are using Alpari, IBFX, FXDD and Tradeview.

Happy Trading
