hello Support.
Ask me if you plan to set quantity for cfd contract from lmax at 1 and not 10.

OK, the problem with this kind of change is it requires a lot of planning and notification to users. We just have not had time to concentrate on it.

i'm waiting this correction to come back with you.
Some others plateforms manage quantity for cfd "normally", for the rest Sierra is definitively better.

Thanks to take in consideration this disagrement.

I can't tell you if using a parameter is the best solution. If i have to set before a parameter for symbol i trade , it is not a problem for me. Do what is easier for you but i'd like that in the trade dom:

1- Quantity displays is the real quantity not a ten multiplier:

2- P&l is also real P&l not a ten multiplier.

Objective of this improvment is to get trade dom easier and not confused to look at.

rq:
If i buy a germany 30 (2.5 quantity of a germany30 mini contract) what quantity will be display: 1 or 2.5 ?
If i buy 1 cfd eur/usd what quantity will be display: 1 or 10 000 ?

Through LMAX in the case of Germany 30, can you trade a fraction of a quantity?

Does LMAX have CFDs for Forex pairs?

lmax system refuse a fractional quantity for Germany30 but accept a fractional quantity for forex pairs:

buy 1.5 germany30==> refused
buy 1.5 euro/usd==> accepted

Yes lmax have cfd for forex pairs

Based upon what you say in post #8, we should not make a change to how the quantity is specified for a CFD. Which is currently 10 times the actual quantity.
