For cmirror, I support the suggestion, or an alternative solution, as I face the same issue mirroring two strategies, and end up being bombarded by positions that eventually get stopped out due to margin. I tried reducing the % of trade volume mirrored, but that did not work when strategy provider took lower volume positions. If I can set a condition on how much of available balance can each mirrored strategy provider utilize, it would be great and eliminate positions created in time of insufficient margin being used.
I also tried stopping the mirror temporarily but that resulted in closing all mirrored positions. Not nice :-)
I searched on ideas/suggestion link if cloesd or any other trader has posted the same or similar suggestion, but could not find this issue.
If you are addressing this issue then kindly advise the link for the suggestion so I can follow up on the solution.
If not, Then I strongly suggest that you consider it, keeping in mind that such over utilization of available balance could still occur even if a trader were mirroring one strategy provider, not matter how much you set the percentage volume mirrored to.
