lot size is not working on fixed amount

When I use a "fixed amount" method for lot sizing, it always uses the maximum allowed lot size instead of varying it according to the stops.

could you post a strategy (.sq4) file here?

I'll test it but it might be a strategy issue.

I got the same problem, if strategy is using ATR based SL it works but with fixed pips it will always trade the maximum lots

this issue is fixed in Beta 8, there is one more connected issue - in previous versions the generated startegies might not have the Size parameters in orders set to "Use Global MM".

If this is the case, you should open your strategy in SQWizard and edit the EnterAtXXX block, an dexplicitly set Size to Use Global Money management". Only then the settings in SQ4 will be reflected in SQ4 backtest.
