Hi luixcosta,

The position was not copied at first due to the equity-to-equity ratio, since the calculated volume for the follower was below the minimum volume for the specific symbol. At 07/09/2020 the strategy provider withdrew funds from his account, which triggered the standard recalculation of copied positions. Based on the new volume calculation the position could be copied. The problem here is that the strategy provider allows a minimum amount for followers that does not correspond to the strategy. If for example he opens positions with volume of $3000 on $2000 account then a follower following with $200 will not be able to follow since the minimum volume is $1000 but the equity to equity ratio results to a volume of $300.
