Portfolio Max Buying Power/Leverage

Postby user_01 » 15 Mar 2024

Hi. How do i set a limit to the portfolio buying power in portfolio backtesting. I use portfolio trader which consists of a 2 strategies and a bunch of stocks. I check the trades and at some point of time i was holding around 10 million worth of stocks when my equity was only 2million. How do i set some portfolio management rule whereby i limit the value of my stock holdings to twice my equity? Thank you in advance :D

Hello user_01,

You can use the Required Capital Assumptions in Margin Trading setting in Portfolio Trader to adjust it to your needs.
For more info about these settings please see this page.
