Hello csino

I'd 2 reasons for posting:

1) To try and help/advice you of the thread above.

2) We'll both probability have our messages deleted for being in the wrong forum, unless your question relates to your EA not working on the ECN platform.

Update: Post your problem again at the link above and we'll talk more there.

Im using MT4 EA for trading i have used my EA on Demo, Micro and Standard Account with no problem.
Then i tried ECN demo last month (Oct 2009) my EA worked fine.
This month (Nov 2009) i open ECN real account, my EA does not work it always got error "invalid volume", so i tried on backtest on my ECN REAL account terminal it work..!!!!
Clear enough on my EA that " MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_LOTSTEP) " yield "0.01", but it can not accept 0.09 or 0.01 lots.
ECN demo account accept 0.01 lots while my ECN real account does not accept 0.01 lots.
I know that FXOPEN send PM on every terminal said "we are glad to announce that from now FXOpen ECN/STP accepting deals from 0.1 lots"
But they not told my EA (incorrect setting on Metatrade4 Server...??? I do not know...???).

Our ECN accepts trades from 0.1 lots. You can have 0.11 or 0.12 but not 0.09. You have to set your EA to open 0.1 lots as a minimum. It also should support 5 decimal pricing.

Yes it seem like that.
Actually i have solve the problem by modified my ea code, it ok with me, but how about my other fellow trader who can not modified their ea, i think their ea wont work on fxopen ecn account. (may be like csino case / CASINO ??? )
Usually when the broker have minimum lot they declare it on
MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_MINLOT) = 0.1

Where on FXOpen ECN i found this
MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_LOTSTEP) = 0.01
MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_MINLOT) = 0.01

Where it may be suppose to be
MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_LOTSTEP) = 0.01
MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_MINLOT) = 0.1

I'm very sure there FXOpen IT Department can solve this ..!
