Is there an example of how to set a position size different by ticker within the main strategy backtest code, or does it have to be done in the AMM?

For example, I simply want to create a variable "Size" (which will be a function of other strategy variable results) to represent % of available equity to trade by ticker ,
which will be calculated by formula with a different variable result for each ticker, and recalculated for each time period.

Thanks!

Currently, position sizing can be done only using AMM.
