so...... how many "Lot size" is correct for gold?  100 or 1000?

Would it be possible for you to learn about FSB by doing some experimenting... you can easily see what happens with the calculations as you make different entries....

Experimentation will help you to quickly learn as to how the program works.

What symbol type did you use?

Actually there is no difference in backtesting for "Forex", "Index" and "CFD".
I put these options for eventual future compatibility.
FSB manages all these three categories in the same way (for now).

If it happens to change something in the backtest in the future, I'll announce it properly.

No plans for changing the backtest methods in FSB Pro also.

That is wrong.
Gold is not forex

Some brokers treat it as forex and some treat it as CFD....... have to check the properties of each
