Money management is an essential element when working with any Forex strategy and expert advisors. Most trading systems are recommended to use with the risk of no more than 2-3% per trade.

An example of how to calculate: for example, your trading system gave the signal to open trade with a stop loss of 50 points. Your deposit is $500 and you are willing to risk 3% of the deposit in this transaction. In the "Deposit" write 500, in the "Risk" 3 and in the "Stop Loss" - 50. As the result you'll see that your risk is $15, and your trading lot - 0.03.
