I try to run an EA created with SQ on a live account (XM forex account) but I keep getting the error:

Error opening order:131: invald trade volume

 

With the test EA run in MT4 I didn’t recieve any errors with exact same EA setting. I’m using 0.1 lot sizes.

 

Any idea what goes wrong?

it can be broker specific thing but you can try to change ‘LotsDecimals’ to 1 since you don’t use values like 0.05 etc. Have you tried to play live fixed position size?

I figured it out. After downloading the MT-4 version of XM my problem was fixed. 😉 Also I needed to select microchart to trade 0.1 size lots.
