On a 5k account, with "Set order quantity = by account size", NinjaTrader generated "Quantity=333", and their server said "FXCM, Order Quantity must be a multiple of 1000".
This was on USDHKD, which has a margin value of 15.
Therefore technically it was correct. 5k / 15 = 333.333.
However, it would not have mattered if the account had been 50k. It would still have been rejected as not being a multiple of 1000.
Therefore "Set order quantity = by account size" seems unworkable in its present format.
