[User Discussion] - Global leverage setting + oversized orders without rejection

I’ve tested the JForex platform of Dukascopy and I’m fond of of some of its features, in terms of convenience, which make the trading effortless, by saving actions, thus time and energy, helping to focus on decisions instead of clustered execution.

So, it integrates a global leverage setting which is independent of the default structural margin requirements, but enforces max position sizing versus account size and risk parameters. Does SC have something similar ?

On top of it, orders can be managed in oversized quantities without creating issues. By that I mean, whether amended (handled platform side) or executed, it won’t lead to rejections. If filled, the max quantity based on max leverage will be matched and the rest in excess simply canceled without an error message.

It might sound trivial but it really makes a huge difference. Both features coupled together, it prevents for the need to make precise calculations (which can come in handy in many situations like reverse a position on limit that you may pyramid before) instead you can just apply gross quantities and focus on something else, all while following a set risk plan.

I grew very accustomed to these facilities. Could SC mimic such options ?
(I honestly don’t mind about not dealing with server side orders since I prefer to hide my intentions out of the order book in the first place)
