I have $3000 free margin.

When I add a market order to EURUSD with a volume of 1 it costs aprox $30.00.

If I try to open a market order with a volume of 5 I get a message saying "not enough money".

Shouldn't it cost $150.00.


Thanks

1 full lot is $100,000.

So you will have been operating at about 33:1 leverage.

5 full lots would require a leverage of 166:1, which I'm guessing you don't have (or want, given your comments on the cost).
