You get the divide by zero if your profits fall too low:

When NetProfit+1 goes negative, Conts is zero, and the Max_Loss 
calculation blows up.

Instead of calculating Conts as Floor(x/y)+1, maybe instead you 
should use

  Conts = MaxList(1, Floor((NetProfit+1)/ContSize));

That way Conts is always positive.
