A simple formula is used to calculate the lot size. MaxRisk can adjust the size of each lot. It is currently based on FreeMargin() but can be altered to AccountBalance() by changing that one name.
Phoenix 5.7.2W allows settings where "fast is slower than slow." If you look at the settings you will notice that Fast has a larger value than Slow. this is a logical error, and will lead to long term erratic trading. I recommend reoptimizing the fast and slow values under 5.7.2a. My optimization notes have more information on which values are valid and which are good examples.
