The highest possible loss is all capital in your account. Margin and Risk are for single trades only, not for the whole strategy.

Zorro has indeed a limit - it stops trading when you have less than $1000 remaining margin. Still, you can lose even those $1000 partially or totally when open trades go against you.

Then there might be a problem. Zorro might not trade as I have only 200 dollars in my account but this is a microlot accoutn.

I understand. We'll remove the $1000 limit for the next release, 1.01, which is scheduled for tomorrow. You can then trade with $200 on your account.

So is live trading of Z1/Z2 on a demo account also affected by this bug?

They should be not affected because they are compiled. Still, better don't trade them until the new release tomorrow. The bug might have some side effects because the wrong header caused random content of an internal variable.

So I start Zorro live on my microlot account. The strategy states it needs atleast 600 dollars to trade safely... so I will be topping up with time. Here is a link to the Myfxbook myfxbook for this account.

The test didnt go too well.. I have lost over 68% of the invested capital mainly due to my own negligence. I closed the platform on Monday so as to restart it but forgot to slide the Margin and risk back to low levels. As you can see from the myfxbook page, some trades did take huge losses... But one more thing I realised was that Zorro was opening multiple positions at the same price. This happened with 3 similar EURUSD positions and 4 AUDUSD positions. I hope JCL will look into this... I need to take a break now and wait for the update.

The multiple positions are ok. They happen when several strategies give a trade signal at the same time.
