1. In demo mode, can you set the lots to mini lots (as you recommend in Basic Level)? I can't find a way to do so, and the "Help" feature is the only complaint I have with the software so far - it's fairly useless.

2. And, along the same train, is there a way to change the leverage amount? It is automatically set for the maximum, I think, and I want to reduce it to demo in the way I would trade (if I ever get there, at this rate).
Thank you for your post Relaxiom, and the whole complimentary paragraph.
Pity you have these "user" friends, I know what that is like!!

I have carefully read your whole post, but for space saving, I have only quoted the necessary parts here.

I am horrified at the telephone calls - that is just being rude!!
I can tell you that Kinetic would not do such a thing, they have not called me yet, unless I have a specific need.

Now to your questions :

The leverage is set to 100:1 by default I think.
It is a good leverage and I suggest that you stay with it.
It is the leverage that I use.

You can ajust the lots yourself.
Open the Direct Deal Ticket and you can set your lots.
You can also set your lots when you open the "new order" icon.
Finally you can set the lots by default in the File/configure/parameters window.

Now get some sleep will you?
Trading without sleep is a one way road to making losses!!
