Using the Auto Risk method the Slave trade size adjusts proportionally to the Master’s trade size and account size. This method ensures the same risk level is maintained between accounts.
- Formula: Slave Order Size = (Slave Account Balance / Master Account Balance) x Master Order Size x Auto Risk Value
- Example: if the Master account is $1000 and the Slave account is $500, setting Auto Risk to 1 means the Slave places 0.5 lots for every 1 lot the Master trades.
