Work with FOREX but volume error with US500 #36

Open mehmetcigerli opened 5 months ago

mehmetcigerli commented 5 months ago

Hello, thank you for the library.

I tried the lib with EURUSD which worked fine.

However I ran into this weird volume error with US500.

My code: symbol = "US500" volume = 0.1 # order size price = api.quote() price = np.round(price['US500']['bid'] + 0.002, 1)

id = api.buyLimit(symbol, volume, price)

And I received this as error.

ERROR:root:Order volume 10000.00 is bigger than maxVolume=100.00.

Which is not the volume I entered clearly.

Please help.

Thank you very much.

HI, This error is because of it multiplying the volume with 10000 for forex calculation. Changing it in the main library fix.py I was able to solve the issue.
