NQ to MNQ quantity conversion examples
Copilink Cross Order maps NQ to MNQ while the follower ratio controls quantity. The app calculates floor(leader quantity × follower ratio) so every submitted quantity is a whole contract.

How to use the table
Choose NQ as the leader instrument, enable the supported Cross Order mapping to MNQ, then set the ratio for each follower. A calculated result below one becomes zero, so no follower order is sent for that event.
Cross Order selects the paired symbol. The ratio is the explicit quantity control, which lets each follower use the contract count selected for that account.
