Percent INvested

Hello,

I noticed I have a strategy that buys more than the available cash on the first trade. What causes this, and how can I stop this from happening?

The strategy just is

buy = 1;

Can I limited the amount invested to say 100%? i.e. force it to round down the shares instead of up?

Thanks,
Jon

Hi,

Update your trading system, go to "Settings -> Capital" and check your settings there. You can define the amount to invest, commissions, slippage...

You may also force it to always buy less than 100% by specifying a lower percentage to invest.
