I can not place orders from the MICRO account.
You need to display a dedicated chart for your MICRO account.
At XM Group, there are two different charts, MICRO account chart and STANDARD account. (1 lot in STANDARD account=100,000 currency units, 1 lot in MICRO account=1,000 currency units).
So, you need to look for the symbol Micro that follows the currency pair (Example: Currency pair showing MICRO account will not be EUR /USD but will be EUR /USDmicro) by right clicking on the price list window, select all currency pairs.
