To start off, I am a beginner MQL programmer. Now, here goes a beginner question.
I have a variable defined in my EA:
Code:
extern double Lots = 0.1;
However, when the EA trades, it uses 1.0 lots, even though the 0.1 is set under variable above. Could anyone please be so kind to explain me how do I make sure that EA uses the lot size I set in the variable? Is there any special code I need to add to my expert?
Thanks in advance,
Diam0nd.

Try to find and modify all "OrderSend" functions in EA... Add "Lots" variable...
OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,3,Ask-25*Point,Ask+25*Point,"My order #2",16384,0,Green);
