The first block of our settings allows you to set your starting balance, the size of the open trade for each position, and the commission for each trade.

### Starting Balance

Here, you set your starting capital, from which the script will begin testing your strategy.

### Trade Size

You have the option to set the risk per trade, either as a fixed percentage of your capital or a fixed size trade from your capital.

### Fee, %

Each trading platform has a different commission percentage per trade. We recommend checking with your broker to find out the commission they charge for each trade.
